The Gang makes an Exertion Game

PYJAMMA SLEEP OVER! GREAT SUCCESS!

So today, our group had a bonding session, pyjamas, pillowcases, sleeping bags were brought over to a single house. In that house we played truth or dare, 20 questions, nintendo wii, deep and meaningful conversations and even cooking! Oh god you should've been there...

In other news we also tried to give our ideas 'substance' some sense of 'form' we brought them kicking and screaming into the harsh reality of life! Patricks baby was born first as you can see he's a tad bit red and was immediately punched as soon as it came out:

FALCON PUNCH!

It was made using a rebounding punching bag (weighted by water), a simple microphone headset and a computer, costing a wonderful 0 pesos! We speculated, that the score can be measured via the amount of sound is generated, using this handy program:

Adobe something?

What did we learn kids? As a group we discovered the game was indeed fun, and of course it fit the flexible criteria that was set in stone by Floyd. We discussed a scoring system as well:

Score will be multiplayed depending on the 'equipment' used to hit:
x 1 Fists (Easy)
x 4 for Nerf Bat (Hard)
It's easier to produce sound with your fist, than a nerf bat. Make sense no?

The second child was Justin's tactical GPS game, which caused our engineers some great stress:

Thankfully we had an epiphany! And hobbled up a finely engineered prototype model:

Again the budget was a jaw dropping 0 rupees! It was made with a pre-existing notebook, skype, a headband, sticky tape and the internet! Basically the runner is 'rigged' with the webcam+headband also known as the 'headcam' whilst the controller is 'rigged' with a desktop computer. Communication? It's farily simple, we used the in built skype instant messanger to send the messages to the controller and runner.



But sir! There are limitations though, the runner is feeling 'exertion' but the controller isn't. Then there's also the cumbersome 'headcam' the runner has to constantly look at the skype program to see the images. On the other hand it's really entertaining for the audience, seeing a person with a huge bulky rig walking around the city doing odd things, the idea got us all kicking and screaming like school girls. Anyways must dash, Lady Gaga is playing my song!
