ONE-BUTTON GAMES / ESP32 APPLICATION
Lily Go Dongle Games
One-button games for the LilyGo T-Dongle S3 (ESP32-S3)
About this project
About this project
A one-button console squeezed into a LilyGo T-Dongle S3: a 0.96-inch ST7735 panel, 80x160 pixels, an APA102 LED for feedback, and BOOT as the only input. Four games share it — Flappy Bird with gaps that narrow as the score grows, a Runner where holding jumps higher, Snake that wraps at the edges so only self-collision ends a run, and Tower Stack where anything overhanging is sliced off and a drop within 2 px counts as perfect. Tap in the menu to move, hold 0.6 s to start, hold 2.5 s in a game to return, with a progress bar showing the wait. High scores per game survive power cycles in flash. A fixed 60 Hz loop draws into a sprite and pushes one finished frame. PlatformIO builds it, pinned to espressif32@6.9.0 because TFT_eSPI is unreliable with core 3.x on this chip.
