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.

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.

I also learned that usb can be use as source for spreading viruses .Also that virus is a type of malware. And finally beware of the website that dont considered "mainware".
