Games and Animations on 16x16 LEDs
This is a collection of python scripts that run animations and games on a 16x16 matrix of WS2812B LEDs (aka Neopixel, if from Adafruit). The project is inspired by and compatible to Jeremy Williams' Game Frame.
I recommend you use this tutorial to set up the LED hardware. Make sure you install rpi_ws281x as explained in the tutorial.

If you have a different setup, you can edit the Screen.py
file to translate the 16x16 matrix on your LED strip.
To set up the software, clone this repository on your Raspberry Pi. Rename the file config.ini.example
to config.ini
.
Make sure, the neopixel library is installed.
This project uses Python 2.7.
Place your animations in a folder called animations
in the repository. For each animation, a file /animations/animation_name/0.bmp
should exist.
Here are the Eboy animations and a forum for fan-made Game Frame animations.
