Blinka Jump is a video game created with CircuitPython. Using the displayio library you can use sprites, text and other features to build your own game.
The game was coded with the PyBadge in mind. The PyBadge board has everything you need onboard to be a compact handheld gaming device.
This game is based on the Chrome browser's jumping dinosaur game Easter egg. In this version, Blinka needs to jump over the Sparky the Blue Smoke Monsters to save the circuits running on CircuitPython.
