Oh Sifteo, you are too cruel. Seriously, having never worked with any system remotely like this before, I found this project to be completely unapproachable. The documentation for the SDK is lacking and there is significant overhead to get started on these projects. I sort of feel like a solid foundational understanding of C++ is really the only way to travel in Sifteo world.

By the end I figured out the events system pretty well. My demo is a first foray into getting something up and running with (limited) intelligible value. Basically I’m displaying the accelerometer data coming off the cubes graphically. It’s a simple application to be sure, but it took my whole brain several hours to get this far!
