Inspired by Ben Heck’s Hex Game
This is a binary game I made to teach my friends about binary. In the end I play with this in class to keep myself awake.
You convert random denary(0-255) or hexadecimal(0-ff) values on the screen to binary, and then use the 8 main switches to input that binary value. You can choose to convert values to binary forever, or within a 60 second time limit with high scores (Not stored in memory though).
There are also other features, like
- Spam game, where you spam the button in 60 seconds for high scores
- A conversion tool, to convert binary to denary, hexadecimal or ASCII
- An ASCII Text editor, where you enter binary values representing the ASCII character into the screen, and
- A Main menu, where you enter binary values to access the different features and modes
- Lack of Sound, so you can play in class (It’s a feature, not a bug)
