Inspiration
Vector graphics on old arcade machines.
What it does
Plays a multiplayer version of Blackjack through the auxiliary port of an oscilloscope. The gameplay for one player is sent through the auxiliary output of a laptop and channeled into the X and Y inputs of an oscilloscope. One person, the house, controls the game from the computer, while the player sits at the oscilloscope to watch the game.
How I built it
I programmed it with my brain.
Challenges I ran into
Relearning how to use an oscilloscope, making ASCII character graphics with a "guess 'n' check" method, making the oscilloscope update correctly with the actual game, dealing with the quality of the integrated audio chip on my laptop
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Getting the program to work, and getting it finished despite how many corners I cut
What I learned
You can't start file names with numbers in C#, the letter Q is difficult to draw, I need sleep
What's next for Blackjack, but finally playable with one monitor
This game needs entirely overhauled, and projected on a wall.
