I recently took up a project to try to mimic a game I saw in my childhood science center. It was a game where you could hit a button and have to race an animal via lit up bulbs that would light up down a long hallway and you’d basically have to beat the lights down the hallway by racing them. I’m newer to python and I’ve only been coding for about a year or two. I already have the game set up but I’m debating on what light strips to get(cost effective) that would be easiest to code with python. Also I haven’t coded the sunning of the light strips(because I don’t have them) All I want them to be able to do is when a button is clicked(on screen) pause for about 3 seconds.(3-2-1-go) then have one led light up down the whole strip to the end. Then I’ll also try my hand at having them all light up once it reaches the end. I’m between the SMD5050, SMD3528, or WS281x. Do they all require the same code or is one harder than the other?
