Libraries
Once you've gotten CircuitPython onto your CLUE or Circuit Playground Bluefruit (CPB) board, it's time to add some libraries. You can follow this guide page for the basics of downloading and transferring libraries to the board.
Libraries for Very Simple Game
No libraries are required from the bundle for this version.
The random library is used but this library is built into the CircuitPython interpreter.
Libraries for Simple Game
From the library bundle you downloaded in that guide page, transfer the following libraries onto the CLUE board's /lib directory:
- adafruit_ble
- adafruit_display_text
- adafruit_imageload
- neopixel.mpy
The adafruit_imageload and neopixel.mpy aren't used by this version but are needed later for the Advanced game...
Libraries for Advanced Game for CLUE
From the library bundle you downloaded in that guide page, transfer the following libraries onto the CLUE board's /lib directory:
Libraries for Advanced Game for Circuit Playground Bluefruit with TFT Gizmo
From the library bundle you downloaded in that guide page, transfer the following libraries onto the CPB board's /lib directory:
- adafruit_ble
- adafruit_display_text
- adafruit_imageload
- adafruit_gizmo
- neopixel.mpy
- adafruit_st7789.mpy
Libraries for Advanced Game for Circuit Playground Bluefruit only
From the library bundle you downloaded in that guide page, transfer the following libraries onto the CPB board's /lib directory:
- adafruit_ble
- adafruit_display_text
- neopixel.mpy
The adafruit_display_text is not actively used but is needed due to how the implementation uses and imports libraries.
Development Testing
During development, the application was tested on the CLUE and CPB boards using CircuitPython 5.3.1 with libraries from the adafruit-circuitpython-bundle-5.x-mpy-20200825.zip bundle. It should work on subsequent versions, the latest version is recommended for the CLUE and CPB.
