your schematics don't even have mentioned about any button which according to your description is required to play

You need to add a button to digital pin 2. I did not include the button in the schematics as the game portion is only an accessory to the main topic and also because the schematic would become too very messy. Even then I will try to upload the schematic as soon as possible.

Hello could you please make a version for the I2C driver

This stinks! I tryed everything! don't do it. your gonna end up like me, with a dumb code that does not work. it has error, I copyed the whole thing. not sure why it has errors. but it just has random flashing pixels on the screen light up. it's like this code is currupt.

Gaming is the sphere that many people involved in. Besides, I believe that we all should know more about it as it seems quite interesting topic for discussion. Anyway, recently I decided to get more knowledge and accidentally found this site https://termsdepot.com/virtual-reality-gaming-vr-gaming/ where I was able to learn what are virtual reality gaming and why it’s better than traditional games. If you’re interested, you might also try to learn it better.
