WARNING: FLASHING LIGHTS!

I made a Zoetrope! A Zoetrope is basically an old timey toy from long ago that gives the illusion of motion, I just made an electronic version. By blinking the light rapidly in a dark room you can hide the structure moving and you just see an animation. The darker the room the better this works and it still works in person but it works better through a camera. The animation is of a cheetah running.

The light is too bright, and I can't get the cheetah to look like it's staying in the middle, but I'm still happy with this!

The electronics was an Arduino Uno, a 6V DC motor and a 10mm led.

The frames of the cheetah running was 3D printed using Transparent PLA at the base and Black PLA for the silhouette of the cheetah. The structure of the Zoetrope is just Silver PLA designed in FreeCAD.

I can upload the STL files if anyone cares enough, just let me know.

The code is just rapidly blinking an LED and running a DC motor full speed. I can upload it to github but there's really nothing more than that.

I figured out a way to 3d print pictures! It's just a cool little idea I've been working on for the past 4 days that I finally got down. It's a milestone in a much bigger project idea I have but I still thought it was cool and worth sharing!

I made this video because it was fun to do and I had the freetime. I'm not a video editor, I'm a programmer, so please have mercy on the quality of the video.

Someone "modded" my game to make all levels available for free.

Someone else confirmed that it worked...

All the levels are always available for free.

At first I thought dumb and dumber were truly high fiving themselves but then I realized that they possibly added malware

Casual Mode is out now! The biggest critism of my game was that it was too hard to the point of if you were not dedicated it was not enjoyable. Now there is casual mode to make the game better for those who want to have fun but don't want to dedicate hours and days of practice to getting better.

The difficulty switch is in the middle of the level select board and will result in silver stars when a level is completed in Casual mode. Pro mode scores take priority so if you beat the level with a 1 star on Pro and 3 on Casual, the 1 Pro star will show.

I hope you enjoy!

It's supposed to look like the 2 cubes are rotating in opposite directions, can you see it?

Eh... I can kind of see sometimes

Ignore the bad quality of the print, I had some settings messed up

I figured out how to make a 3D ambigram last night! I got excited to show people and the first thing my buddy tells me is there's a tool that does it for you and I didn't have to do it myself.

Oh well, it still looks cool
