Story
Press once to pick, press again for a new result. Great for pre-meal dilemmas, deciding group takeout with friends, or office lunch picks.
After burning the program to your Wio Terminal, the screen shows "PRESS & EAT" and "WHAT TO EAT?". Just press the 5-way joystick, and food names start scrolling rapidly — KFC, Burger, Pizza, Sushi, Ramen… 20 in total. After 2 seconds it stops, displaying "TODAY'S CHOICE" with the final result and a matching pixel icon. The bottom says "JUST EAT IT!" — no more indecision, just eat.
Struggling with "what to eat" every mealtime? This project is here to save the day.
