Overview

Tron: Light Cycles is a game with 2 players as light cycles. The players draw a trail behind themselves as they travel across the screen. When one player runs into a trail or into a wall, the game is over. The two players will be controlled using NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) controllers and the output will be displayed on a 640x480 VGA monitor. Game logic and mechanics are coded in SystemVerilog; Intel Quartus is used to simulate and synthesize the code.
