The full story
YAMA, "Yet Another Microcontroller Arcade", is a handheld with seven classic games written to run on a standard ESP32-WROOM-32 with a cheap 2" 240x320 display board that has a rotary encoder and an extra button. The encoder works well for Arkanoid and even Galaga.
The maker used Claude a lot to keep the GitHub repo tidy and for some of the code, and leaned on other open-source projects to write the games largely from scratch. Most of the games still need more work and testing.
