Introduction Nova Strike is a 2D space shooter game implemented with an Atmel ATmega32 microcontroller. The inspiration came from our love of video games and fond memories of playing space shooters on our TI-89 graphing calculators in high school (instead of paying attention in calculus class). Our project is based on the revolutionary arcade game,
