Missile Defense. No Kidding!

     I wanted to make a game that actually worked, and here it is! It's a simple copy of the Atari game, Missile Defense. To be honest, the missile (an exclamation point) does not line up with the target (a circle). So I made a pipper circle that's above the exclamation point so it looks like the target circle lines up with the exclamation point. It's a simple optical illusion.

       Put the wheel motor in port A with a 50 cm cable, and the touch sensor in port 1 with a 20 cm cable.


To get the program of this game, go to www.mindstorms.com, click on NXTLog, and type in missile defense game. If that doesn't work, search minifig2222.
