This is a giant Game & Watch Octopus game I built for Maker Faire Adelaide which was held on November the 5th, 2017. There were so many adults who were excited to see it and remembered owning or playing a Game & Watch when they were kids.

It was also great to see kids enjoying the game (who often played together with a parent or friend using a button each). Lots of memories and lots of fun!

Hi

Wow, that's really great!
Thanks a lot for sharing!

How about a Multi Screen Game next time?

A number of people I spoke with at the Maker Faire remembered Donkey, Oil Panic, or Green House and asked if I was thinking of making a multi-screen game. This one folds in half to fit in the back of our hatchback car but I don't think I could get a multi-screen game to fit!
