alt.ctrl games w/ Rust
summary
Project is a real alt.ctrl game called Riding in the park with parrots: a rail‑shooter with a hacked bike handle and gyroscope that balances parrots while a 3D world runs in Bevy. Hardware stack is Bevy + ESP32 + Raspberry Pi, with comms via serial or a wireless HTTP fallback, and development uses cross for cross‑compiles. Notes: baby_serial crate update rescues a dead end, wrong ESP32 variant causes hardware delay, game mostly runs but Raspberry Pi packaging still needs work.
