Pong MIPS

Pong MIPS

For one of my classes at the University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) we learned a basic understanding of MIPS. Me being myself with a background in digital logic and having created my own instruction set, decided I wanted to have a deeper understanding of MIPS. As always when I want to learn something I started a project. I decided to implement the classic game of Pong in MIPS.

For our class we used the MARS MIPS Simulator. Did not have a tool that allows keyboard input and a bitmap display. So I created a branch and added a tool that captures key presses and had a bitmap display. I also added a convenient way to run the program with opening the whole editor. I included my “hacked” version of the MARS Simulator in my pong repo.
