Playing Pokemon Together With Node.js
summary
Live coding shows a working pipeline: a Twilio phone number posts incoming SMS to a local tunnel, a Node.js and Express app parses the body and writes a button name into a button.txt file bridge, and a Game Boy emulator runs Lua scripting that reads that file, sets joypad input for a configurable number of frames (example uses five) and advances frames. The system receives texts, presses buttons in Pokémon Red and successfully plays though not always winning.
