Someone recently asked me how to manipulate LEDs to display basic 2D graphics. I'm more of a practical type problem solver and had not ventured into the world of graphics manipulation. I was interested to find out more, and kicked off with a simple LED Tetris game.
Tetris on the PIC Microcontroller seemed simple enough to begin with, but it didn't take long for the first few teething issues to arrise (such as rotating 2D graphics and collision detection). I managed to resolve each issue, and had the program working solution in a couple of days.
Here's a video of the completed project: YouTube - PICtris (Tetris on a PIC).wmv
And the project page itself (source code/schematic etc): Tetris on a PIC Microcontroller
