While waiting for the boards, I need to write the program that would run on those boards. Quick googling allowed me to find an Arduino sketch that plays the Nyan Cat tune on Arduino. A quick refactoring and fixing of formatting, and here it is:
/*

* Plays Nyan Cat
* Example:
* Circuit: 8-ohm speaker on digital pin 8

I'm not sure it will fit onto the ATtiny85, but if it doesn't, I see a lot of room for optimization there.
Since this is just "for fun" project, I'm completely ignoring the copyrights here (the Nyan Cat is a registered trademark anyways). I'm not even sure it would apply, since if I decided to transcribe that song myself, I would come up with exactly same notes, so there is not much originality here. I'm retaining the names of the original authors, though, because I think they deserve it anyways.
P.S. Wow, I didn't know you could embed videos in code!
