Title: [images] Build your own onechip Pacmangame!
Post by: abbe on May 30, 2005, 07:35:27 pm

Hi guys

I wrote a clone of the old arcade game Pacman. It only uses a AVR ATmega16 chip.
Check it out and let me know what you think about it.
You will find all about it (source, schematics, screenshots, ...) in my AVR Pacman page:

Awesome, and I thought sanding an old project cab was quite an accomplishment!

Way to go!

Can the Mega16 code be easily ported to the Mega8515?  I just got two Mega8515's this week, my first Mega chips so I'm not familiar with the differences.

No, the Mega851 only has 8kB Flash and 512B RAM. The game has a minimum requirement of 16kB Flash and 1kB RAM.
