ATmega2560 Mini Gaming Console

I built a mini gaming console powered by an ATmega2560 microcontroller to explore embedded systems, hardware input/output, and interactive device design. The project focused on running simple games directly on low-power hardware rather than a full computer or phone. I programmed game logic for the microcontroller, wired physical controls such as buttons or joystick-style inputs, and connected the system to a display so the device functioned as a self-contained console. The build required working within the memory, processing, and graphics limitations of microcontroller hardware.
