Project Title
Bounce Tales
Abstract
Bounce Tales is a classic mobile game reminiscent of the Nokia era, featuring a bouncing character navigating through levels filled with obstacles. This project aims to recreate the game experience using the SJ-2 board and an LED matrix display. Players will control the character’s movement using buttons or a joystick, while the game will include levels, obstacles, and scoring. The implementation will focus on real-time movement, collision detection, and level progression.
Objectives & Introduction
The idea is to build the bounce tales game on a 64x64 RGB LED Screen. The game is played using a joystick. The ball keeps on collecting the point avoiding the obstacles and its direction can be controlled using left and right control of the joystick, which can also be used in forward direction jump to avoid the obstacles. MP3 decoder is used for different sound effects in the background of game.

Design & Implementation
Hardware Design
The game has been designed using SJtwo-c board, RGB LED- for visuals, MP3 decoder- for background music, joystick and PCB. The game is controlled by using a two-axis joystick and to play the music we have used an MP3 decoder.

Interfacing and Layout
Software Design
Show your software design. For example, if you are designing an MP3 Player, show the tasks that you are using, and what they are doing at a high level. Do not show the details of the code. For example, do not show exact code, but you may show psuedocode and fragments of code. Keep in mind that you are showing DESIGN of your software, not the inner workings of it.
Implementation
This section includes implementation, but again, not the details, just the high level. For example, you can list the steps it takes to communicate over a sensor, or the steps needed to write a page of memory onto SPI Flash. You can include sub-sections for each of your component implementation.
Testing & Technical Challenges
Describe the challenges of your project. What advise would you give yourself or someone else if your project can be started from scratch again? Make a smooth transition to testing section and described what it took to test your project.
Include sub-sections that list out a problem and solution, such as:
<Bug/issue name>
Discuss the issue and resolution.
Conclusion
Conclude your project here. You can recap your testing and problems. You should address the "so what" part here to indicate what you ultimately learnt from this project. How has this project increased your knowledge?
