Wow, is it week 6 already? How time flies… Anyways, this week we’ve spent mostly working on our new prototypes. On Monday we met to discuss feedback from our Quarters presentation, as well as the results from our playtest session. Our biggest takeaway was that we needed to be more adventurous with our prototypes, and while we decided to continue working on the
prototypes we started last week, we added a couple new ideas to the mix.
So, in addition to Walking, Sword and Shield, Throwing, and Dodging, we also added “Spiderman” web slinging (based on our Kinect shooting prototype) and a head lamp-style flashlight, based on our PS Move shooting. Again, while these might not be games on their own, the idea is we’ll test to see which interactions are fun, and find interesting ways to combine or polish them in the second half of the semester.
