Built my first digital pet with my first microcontroller
Okay so I have literally zero coding or electronics experience and somehow I made this?? I'm still in shock honestly. Just so excited to see this thing come alive!!
Every single frame of animation is hand drawn by me. The cute pup, the background, and the animation frames.
Stack:
- ESP32
- SSD1306 OLED
- Piskel for the pixel art
- gif2cpp for sprite conversion
Still figuring out the game logic (hunger, happiness, the whole loop) but honestly I'm just proud I got this far. Baby steps!!
I'm also trying to build a battle mode so your pet can fight other nearby pets. No idea how I'm going to pull that off but we'll see 😅
