## Board overview
The GameNum was designed to facilitate the use of mechanical keys for gaming even when your packing space is limited.
It uses a standard numpad layout replacing the NumLock key with a layer toggle that allows you to cycle through the different layers.
The standard layout features a default layer that acts as a standard numpad, a layer that was meant for simple WASD based games and a layer that was designed to be used for MOBA/RTS related games.
The RTS layer is meant to be used rotating the device 90 degrees counterclockwise.
The README.MD for this board is reasonably extensive and in-depth because the build is quite small and covers a lot of things that I feel that it would be a good starting point for getting into QMK.
## Build considerations
Since the GameNum is handwired and uses 2 of its pins to toggle indicator lights there are some things to keep in mind.
Firmware was build for use with a Pro Micro based on a ATMEGA32u4 at 16mHz.
The indicator LED's are normally assigned to `pin C6` and `pin D4`, C6 goes high when the first layer is used, D4 goes high when layer 2 is used. Both LED's are off when the default layer is enabled.
'+' of the LED goes to the respective pins and can be joined together on the '-' into a resistor that runs to the ground pin of the pro micro. With a standard LED a resistor value of 100 ohm is fine, keep in mind that you cannot use high powered LEDS on these pins without ruining your pro micro.

Keep in mind that the minus of the diodes should point towards the pro micros inputs.

## Adding more layers
Adding additional layers is pretty straight forward. Look in `keymaps/default/keymap.c` and find `#define OSY 2` add a new definition for the layer you are going to add. This can be named pretty much anything. Example: `#define NAMEHERE 3`.
