Project Abstract

This is the project website for Kaitlin Lucio and Diego Herrera Vicioso’s final project in E155 at HMC. Snake on VGA is a project designed to play around with video protocols while displaying a classic game.

Project Motivation

This project was inspired by the look and feel of classic arcade-style games. We were interested in working on such a game, but thought about what could make it interesting. So, the idea of displaying it on a regular, run-of-the-mill monitor (provided it has a VGA port, a less common protocol nowadays) was enticing. So we went for it!
