Skykid Halloween Costume

I've never been a fan of dressing up and pretending to be someone else. None of my Halloween costumes have ever been a specific character from a movie or game, always something generic like a robot or a LEGO brick. But as my craze for Sky: Children of the Light continued (see this project for details), I realized that Sky doesn't have specific characters. Every Sky player can design their Sky character to their liking. When I'm playing Sky, I don't see myself playing as a character. I see myself playing as myself.

Ever since I got into the electronics community, I've admired people sharing photos of their electronic cosplays. But I haven't had a reason to make my own, until now. I made my first Amazon purchase, some transparent 3D printer filament, designed and printed some stars, glued them to an old blanket, and added a short custom-made strand of Neopixels behind them. I've never really worked with fabric before, so cutting out the cape was a challenge. The program is written in CircuitPython, running on an Adafruit Circuit Playground (Bluefruit because that's what I had on hand), and controls the lights based upon the onboard accelerometer. I was originally going to use the light sensor as well, but that proved to be unreliable. I had a lot of fun making this costume, and I'm hoping people will recognize it when I wear it on Halloween (or at least have a few people ask "what is that?" and I can introduce them to Sky).
