RGB LED game shield for arduino

I was wondering why there aren't a lot of games made by the arduino, I mean I found a page of them, but it wasn't tht many. So I decided I should try to make one of my own!

To play this game, you have to match the random color displayed by one of the rgb leds by using 3 sliding potentiometers. Then, you press a button and you are told whether you were right or not. There are 2 levels, easy and  hard, and a reset button so you can go to a new color after you win.

That's the main basis of my project, and I hope you enjoy seeing how I made it.

Step 1: Materials

This is what you need for the project:

Materials:
Arduino
2 rgb leds
3 red leds*
3 green leds*
2 pusbutton switches
1 sliding switch (I used a right-angle DPDT)
3 10k Slidding Potentiometers
1 piece of pc board*
4 10-pin male headers
1 10k resistor
8 150 ohm resistors*
6 100 ohm resistors*
wire

Tools:
Solder
Soldering iron
Basic electronic tools(pliers, wire cutters, wire strippers)

*The stars will be explained on the next page

im having trouble reading it, please do the write-up!!!!

[cricketm24]

Can make a schematic like on eagle a lot of people think it is easier to read off of that instead of the one you made

[the seaker]

Did you use common anode or cathode for your rgb leds?

[ikestarm17]

common cathode but either works

um hey i just turned 13 and im wandering what age do you learn all of this and how old are you please answer immideately because i am exited to learn about arduino and understanding electronics :)

[ikestarm17]

 I am 13 also and i learned about arduino while i was 12-13

looks fun!  would the gameplay change much if you were to use 5k sliders instead of 10k?

[ikestarm17]

not much, you're using them with a microcontroller so it maps out the whole span of the led over the potentiometer no matter how big it is.
