Overview

Skee-Ball is a classic arcade game played by rolling a ball up an inclined lane and over the hump that jumps the ball into the bullseye ring.

Untitled

Traditionally, Skee-Ball is played by one player, who receives a queue of 9 balls. Launching the ball in the rings reward points, with the smallest and hardest to reach giving the most value.

Motivation

This is our final project for the course Digital Systems Fundamentals (EN.520.142) taught by Dr. Pouliquen. We wanted to challenge ourselves by creating a game that has never been implemented before with 7400-series logic.

Our Version

We will be designing and building a two-player version of Skee-Ball. Some changes include:

The ball’s location will be represented by a series of 20 LED lights, as the ball moves through them, they will stay lit.


The Design Process

1) Specifications

We determine the specifications of our outputs and inputs to start designing our game.
