I know I'm jumping ahead a bit, but I was so excited to get this up and running on the first try!
I first tried one of the Vivado blink programs to test the whole compile and download to device process which worked fine. Then I found this excellent demo project from fellow hacker SmartPerson over on GitHub. He also has a great series of videos on YouTube detailing exactly where he got the source and modified it for this board. He did great work, as it ran on the FPGA first try. It's not a game, just displays some images, text, and sprites and moves them, but it demonstrates the use of Block RAM, the HDMI port, and interfacing a pin to the ESP32 chip on the board.
Now I just need to get some time to hack on it, change some things up.
