Hack Like Heck - Hack Like Heck: Chris Rice - GamerMan Ultra Classic

ifish — Mon, 02 Apr 2018 07:20:31 GMT

I used a Raspberry Pi Zero W, some open source knowledge and some of own to make GamerMan Ultra Classic. Like to thank those who helped me with the video, in particularly my friend Trev for making the GamerMan Ultra Classic Splash/Logo. I look forward to catching up on some much needed sleep!

Hack Like Heck - HLH Final / Update - Josh Gavin

Hey. Now just to be clear I have not finished. I had everything on video and the evolution from parts to the final piece, but just as I was finishing the whole thing just broke. The powerboost I was using started to heat up but there was no clear short and the pi wouldn’t accept any power including mains. I may decide to continue this project but unfortunatley I am out of time and can’t finish. Thanks for all the support and good luck to all other contestants who entered. Some of your projects look amazing (especially Nobble’s [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/203/contentimage_5F00_3.png:16:16]). GG

Also you can see my almost finished project in the photos below.
