Design project-day 3

When we looked back to see what we had decided at first, we noticed that most of the things would worked except that some of the task would be to complex. The game design was basically the same except that we had to remove certain tasks.

The most powerful ideas that we want to keep in our game are the hoops and the catapult. To make the game the game a lot easier we would have to remove some of the hoops and and the mini courses under the hoops.

Build Plan:
1. Finish designing the game
2. Built a good catapult
3. Construct hops with different sizes
4. Design the mini games
5. Build the mini games
6. Attach the hoops to the cardboard
7. Test the game to see its complete functionality

List
Santiago:
Resort for catapult
Hoops
Mini Soccer Goal

Esteban:
Balls for catapult
Wood
Plastic tubes

Design project day 2

Together we decided that my design was a little bit better, so we decided to make the game based on my design. We also decided to remove two of the four hoops from the cardboard box so that it isn't so complex for the user. Also the min courses from each hoop should be smaller for the first hoop and harder for the second hoop if possible.

Design project day-1

Partner: Esteban Villegas

This game is fun because its simple and entreating it is also very precise and runs smoothly and its also kind of didactic.Its based on rolling the bull and inserting it on certain holes.This can be improves by using objects with more rigidity. also it has a variety of levels

This game is a claw machine based on grabbing objects with another object, I learn that this game challenges you also it can be improved by stapling the object instead of you holding it but still you can move it.

This is a pinball game its attractive and very creative it has obstacles which makes it more challengy. it can improve by being more organize and things should be better attach.

ideation phase
catapult basketball (idea game)
-this game is entreating it challenges you also it has a variety of levels and obstacles
-you have to be precise which makes it interesting by calculating force etc
-this for elementary boys because it involves a sport and athletes will like
-its simple to understand ( logical)
-instructions are simple by just observing the game
-also it gives you point which makes it morer competitive
Things that could go wrong
-students don't understand the points system
-that the ball doesn't fits in the hoop
-maybe it can get complicated to understand
-and that it doesn't seems fun for other sports boys .
-that it gets to complicated and it might not be able to be accomplish
