I can now run the Flappy Bird type game for Raspberry Pi 500+ keyboard LEDs on a Raspberry Pi 500 on a terminal screen:

On a Raspberry Pi 500 with updated keyboard firmware it will show the game animation in the terminal using VT100/ANSI escape codes. I have not tested this with a Raspberry Pi 500+, but its code was not changed intentionally. I only modified keyboard.py slightly and added a file. It's a fork of the original so it's easy to see the changes:

This could be improved further so that the game output is shown better in a window in the same terminal window, since VT100 had such features.
