it just seems a shame there are so many projects like this where people spend so much time making it, but then run yet another pong or snake on it. there are a lot of cool game concepts you can do on a 40x48 RGB grid, as shown by some recent 8-bit releases. Check out pico-8 and tic-80 for examples too. Having a multiply or divide instruction available is game changing
I run 'pong' and 'snake' on it because they're recognizable and because they can teach kids what makes the games they already know tick on the inside. Of course you can make anything else on it as well, and my kids come up with all kinds of neat ideas all by themselves.
