Atari Gauntlet FPGA Arcade

About

This is an FPGA implementation of Atari's arcade game "Gauntlet" from 1985, based on the SP-284 schematic circuit diagram.

Here is a youtube video of the current status, click on picture below:

The game is mostly functional right now, can coin up and start game, known problems are as follows:

• The TMS5220 speech synth is not implemented
• Audio mixing is not ideal, sound quality needs improvement.
• Game EPROM is implemented as RAM so game settings are lost on power off.
• Some game ROMs are stored external to FPGA, multiplexing may need improvement.
• Only player 1 controls are connected (minor).
