Awhile back, I came across a video where someone used a PLC with I/O indicator lights and programmed it complete with a controller to run like Space Invaders. Anyone know where I can find Thad video?

Haven't seen that one, but how about tetris on a building?

I have a script running the old Nokia flip phone snake game that runs lovely on the 16pt output card with joystick inputs. Code has since been scaled to use a 10x10 indicator matrix on a panelview display for longer levels...
