Halloween is here, so I built this little ghost arcade using a Seeed Studio XIAO board and a 0.96-inch IPS display. It’s a tiny handheld gaming device inside a custom 3D-printed ghost enclosure.

It has two games so far:

👻 Ghost Run – Jump over pumpkins and tombstones while avoiding bats.(like Chrome T-Rex Runner

🎃 Ghost Pong – Play Pong against the microcontroller with bone-shaped paddles and a pumpkin as the ball. (like pink pong)

The games run at up to 60 FPS, and high scores are saved even after powering off.

I designed the enclosure in Fusion 360 and printed it using black and white PLA+. It runs on a small 200mAh LiPo battery, so the whole thing stays compact enough for a keychain or backpack. It could even work as a Halloween hair clip.

I used manual color changes to get the simple face on the 3D print.…
