I just built the Monochron which is a PONG simulation where the score is the current time! Way cool bedside clock with alarm! The "players" miss the ball which increments the time score! Check it out!

Hi Al:

I thought you would be interested in this one! Relatively easy kit to make .. for those who have some soldering experience .. it took me about one hour to build .. and instructions are online to save paper. The clock is opensource which means that you can do whatever you want with it. Several people have written alternative codes for different displays. Here is one where the invaders go back and forth with the clock at the top:

This clock is great! The left player misses the ball every minute .. and the right player misses the ball every hour!

WOW! That is awesome! Can you make it where it has other displays, like asteroids or super breakout?
