Meggy Jr RGB is a platform to develop handheld pixel games based around an 8x8 RGB LED matrix display. The heart of the system is an ATmega168 or ATmega328P microcontroller,which can be programmed through the Arduino development environment.

Meggy Jr RGB is an open source project designed and released by Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories.

For more information, please see the Meggy Jr RGB project page and the introduction to programming Meggy Jr RGB.

We also have started a new developer's mailing list for Meggy Jr RGB; if you have questions, that might be a good place too.

Links to additional Meggy Jr RGB programs can be found at the Evil Mad Scientist wiki.

The library is currently at version 1.3.2, dated September 2, 2009. All users with 1.3.0 or earlier are recommended to upgrade to the current version; there are no source code changes since 1.3.1.

Library 1.3x features several new example programs, including a scrolling message "readerboard" program, an updated version of the game Froggy Jr, and three example programs demonstrating serial communication between Meggy Jr and a host computer-- one of which is a binary clock.

(If you are upgrading from an older version (pre 1.3) and have already written code for Meggy Jr, please see note "Changes.txt" included with the current download.)

If you have written a Meggy Jr RGB program, we'd love to have you contribute it to this project. Please let us know by using the Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories contact form to make your request-- be sure to include your e-mail address. Also, your e-mail address should be one associated with a Google account so that we can add you to the list of developers here on Google Code. If you don't have a Google account, sign up here.
