Overview

The classic arcade game Tron recreated on an mbed using the Serial Miniature LCD module from 4D Systems as the visual interface, the 2 joysticks as the player input, and the SD card reader with a speaker for the game sound! Battle your friends to see who is superior program!

Tron is a 2 player game where each player moves in a straight line and leaves behind a trail or a "wall". Each player is able to control which direction where they turn and try to block the opponents path. If any player crashes into the outer wall or into a wall that either player has created, then that player loses.
