@yogitea yogitea released this 27 Oct 08:31

The first standalone release of Haunted Matrix: atmospheric Halloween art for a 64×32 RGB LED matrix and Adafruit MatrixPortal M4.

Included

  • 99 detailed generated illustrations, with sources and generation prompts in the repository.
  • Shuffled slideshow with no adjacent picture repeats.
  • Smooth whole-picture fade to black, brief pause, then fade in.
  • Coherent color-region dimming: related shades dim and recover together.
  • Offline operation with built-in CircuitPython modules only.

Install

Download haunted-matrix-1.0.0-install.zip, extract it, and copy gallery.bin, ambience.py, and transitions.py to the CIRCUITPY drive root. Copy code.py last. Back up the previous startup program first.

SHA256SUMS contains the install archive checksum. The automatically generated GitHub source archives are for development; use the install ZIP for the board.

Hardware-tested on MatrixPortal M4, a 64×32 HUB75 panel at 4 mm pitch, and CircuitPython 7.0.0. Other boards and firmware versions remain untested.

The original Adafruit howling-wolf artwork is not redistributed. If you already have that image and the appropriate rights, the optional loader can include it as a 100th picture. The default release works without it.
