“This instructable will show you how I built “Twitch”. Twitch is a virtual pet that is able to express itself through it’s eye, movements, and the sounds it makes, which happens to be sound clips from some of its movies. It can be happy, sad, angry, or neutral depending on how much you interact with it. Twitch evolved from a project I saw on the Adafruit site called Adafriend the Virtual Pet Cube by John Wall. The original project consisted of an Adafruit Pro Trinket, a LED Matrix and backpack with a 3d printed cube body among other things. I already had an Arduino Uno, and wasn’t interested in getting it 3d printed so the project evolved from there.”
