Duck Hunt's next platform? Your Christmas tree

Christmas is over. 2020 is already here, too, and if your Christmas decorations aren't down yet you can be a beast. So, it's a little late to add more holly branches to the mantel. However, we did find something you might want to start preparing for next year: a playable version of the Nintendo classic Duck Hunt for your Christmas tree.

Anointed by Hackaday, YouTube creator of ryy Put together a version of Duck Hunt designed to be played on your tree. He created the game using a screen base – a TV-shaped decoration – and some Arduino boards that were connected to 3D printed parts. Here's how it works: the Arduino board inside the zapper helps coordinate the gun with the decoration of a separate duck hanging from a tree; ducks, too, are overwhelmed by the TV decoration. The ducks glow randomly. To score, you must hit & # 39; m – as in a standard game. The Arduino inside the TV decoration holds the score, and will keep the game going until you miss the duck.

Wermy doesn't have a video yet on how to do it, but said she is serious about it if people like it. Listen to me, wermy: We're interested. If only I could find it Duck Hunt running to the Christmas tree, I would even take the risk of setting it up the following year.

My cat – which is definitely a beast – is constantly barking at me.
