A project log for Gameboy form factor Trinket

Much like the Arduboy, or the Gamebuino, I'm trying to put together a Trinket compatible portable games console

I finally got the Asteroids example code running on the Arduino clone! I still need to hook up some controls, but you can "play" it now by shorting the pins used for each switch to ground with your fingers for now. It's hard to tell, but I captured the UFO in this pic:

This is a great motivation for me to finish this project up, since it is a lot easier to see it all coming together now. As you can see, I'm not that good at controlling it with my fingers on some pins:

I also received my shirt in the mail today for being one of the runners-up in the Trinket EDC contest! It came with some stickers, so I'm gonna have to find something to plaster with my HaD swag, lol. I have a couple Hackaday shirts already, but this one I won, which makes it all the more sweeter:

Thanks to our new evil overlords, and thanks to everyone who makes the projects site everything that it is! I've just got to get my controls wired up, figure out a case solution, and then this project can be filed away as done!
