Tetripidation - Tetris with a shake/tilt sensor

[ArKade]

May I ask what specific mercury sensor you are using? I can only find them for ~$2-$3.

$0.48 is the price for one (converted to $ with the exchange rate at the time), I bought a pack of 10

Everything works exactly the way it's supposed to. Overall dimensions: 45x55x29mm
I'm pretty happy with how it turned out

Turns out it has an 18-hour battery life.
I know 1000mAh was overkill, but it was the same height and width as the other components so made sense.

Looks great!
I’d love to see some video of it in action.

I've moved on from this project now. All the files can be found in this post viewtopic.php?f=67&t=6514 along with a complete list of parts you'll need and where you can get them

The pictures of it should be enough for you to figure out how it goes together, it's pretty much just soldering things into place and then putting some arduino code on it.
