This week Jill and I made a first prototype with Makey Makey. First, we made the game Snake using Flash, but we figured that this game would be way too hard to play with the Makey Makey as a tool.
We decided it would be the most fun and useful for our project when we would use the Makey Makey as a tool for players to work and achieve certain goals together, as a team.
The game we chose to prototype with was “Bubble Trouble“.
We made a right and left step (to walk) and two gloves (to shoot) using cardboard and tinfoil. Our plan was that one person was the shooter, and the other person was the walker and these two had to work together to shoot the balls and accomplish levels.
We tested our prototype with Nick, Alexander and Dennis. Conclusion: team work is hard work but at least it was fun.
