A home for yokai
Yokai are spirits from Japanese culture that have bizarre lore
Myself and my roommate created a 3d printed shrine where Yokai could inhabit. This project harkens back to the Tamagotchi craze from the 90s. The Yokai appear as a slime first, and then evolve into a random form that you can play with, clean up after, feed, etc. (2019)
Yokai no ie is a virtual pet for the arduino using a SSD1306.
Was built on the Pro micro, but end product is made for the UNO.
Todo: Wiring diagram.
You create (3d print) a space for a Yokai to inhabit. One will fill the space as a spirit "blob" at first, until it is comfortable enough to reveal its true form to you. Keep track of the Yokai's emotions, play games with it, feed it treats while it inhabits your space.
9/4 6:45 Updated to include mini game, but less Yokai sprites to fit on Pro Micro. 9/4 Update - Working menu and all sprites included and 128x64.
9/3 Update - Working menu - the menu selection works working on adding JKP mini- game.
Yokai no ie was created by William Wimberly and Tony Pallitta from 8/30 to 9/3 during time off for Hurricane Dorian.
