Flappy Bird

Authors: Can Afacan, Julian Tang, Yueyuan Sui
Target Board: nRF52833

Overview

This project implements a Flappy Bird game on the nRF52833 microcontroller. The game utilizes the board's capabilities to create an interactive experience.

Prerequisites

Before getting started, ensure you have the following:

• nRF52833 development board
• GNU Make
• ARM GCC toolchain
• nRF Command Line Tools
• Nordic Semiconductor's development environment (optional but recommended)

Getting Started

1. Clone the Repository

To begin, clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone <https://github.com/JulianTang2027/Flappybird.git>

2. Navigate to the Project Directory

cd your_repo/flappy_bird

3. Build and Flash the Firmware

Use the following command to compile and flash the firmware onto the nRF52833 board:

make flash

4. Running the Game

Once flashed, the game should start automatically on your nRF52833 board. Follow on-screen instructions or button inputs to play!

Inputs and Outputs

Inputs:

• Tactile Input: Button presses are used to control the bird's movement.
• Microphone: The game can detect audio input to trigger actions (e.g., jump by making a sound).

Outputs:

• Speaker: Game sounds and effects are played through the onboard speaker.
• Screen: The game visuals, including obstacles and score, are displayed on the screen.
