So recently my school had the most brilliant idea to conduct a trade fair and the idea was so revolutionary that I had no reason to not be a part of it (This is sarcasm btw). So here I am.
My school's labs were tasked with the extremely easy job of making a stall of their own and selling stuff. My lab, the AI and Robotics lab decided to do an arcade instead (YAYYYYYYYYY)
But, what was not so good was the fact that I willingly decided to sacrifice myself for the better cause and decided to make a game of my own that all the idiots that come can play. It wasn't very supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, to say the least.
First I had to buy all the useful parts for the project which was a reaction time game and that was sadly not the hardest part.
The second thing I had to do was make the project sample on a breadboard and that was probably the easiest thing I have ever done in my 0.001 years of Arduino life.
And the third and hardest thing to do was assembling the whole thing on a cardboard. That was the worst thing that I had ever created out of cardboard and I wonder to this second why I painted it like the abomination it was.
And the fourth and most disastrous thing was presenting this thing and trying to get money. And guess what, I COULDN'T EVEN PRESENT IT.
Turns out, one of my pins to the led of the project was loose and I couldn't find which one it was even though I did everything I could to try to find it. Later, I came to the realization that this thing had somehow died on me at the worst possible second.
And the next worst thing that happened was my LCD started speaking gibberish and I had to do some shenanigans to try to make it say something that would be considered English.
AND as you probably deduced while reading the title, I used ChatGPT to code the whole thing and provide me the wiring. Combined with the fact that there was no Wi-Fi at the event, I COULDN'T EVEN TROUBLESHOOT IT WITH THE HELP OF MY TRUSTED FRIEND.
In the end, there I was, sulking at the fact that I couldn't even make this thing work. And as any normal person would do, I tried to redeem myself.
So I opened IntelliJ and started SWEATING like it was the end of the world and wrote the most rushed up Java program ever and just started hoping that someone would come here and just say:
And by some huge amount of luck I made a bunch of 10 yr olds come and pay to play a goofy-ahh math game that I made in 30 minutes which had a bunch of errors in the game.
Anyways I uploaded the original source code for the arduino project in Github so check it out!
SOOOOOOOOOO PUBLISH BUTTON WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
