Game of Life on an ATTiny85

I wrote a Conway’s Game of Life simulation on an attiny85 with an SSD1306 drive OLED display.

The fun part was to manage the display (a 128x64 one) in a dynamic way by using the small amount of SRAM available. I ended up writting a custom SSD1306 driver for the micro, so it allows the user to create (and modify) a 32x16 grid that can be stored in the internal SRAM and then translated into “big pixels” in the real 128x64 OLED screen.

More info about this process on its github repo and the Hackaday.io project page.
