Monday

Team Meeting

• Carry out further testing with the projectors - can we get a browser game that uses gesture control to work so we can feel it out?
• Carry out some play-testing with the projectors - find out how our game design makes player feel, what do they think of a physical game space with projected gameplay?
• Meet with James to discuss progress on the Getaway first prototype that we planned last week
• We must create a refined schedule for the Easter break as we will be working remotely from home and need to work out how to best make use of that time.

My tasks for this week

• [x] Testing sessions with Emilia
• [x] Projector tests
• [x] Experience tests
• [x] Test Getaway Prototype

Projector Testing

As planned, on Monday we set up the projector with one wall of content, with a online browser game playing. This was so we could establish how well our set-up is going to work and see what proximity might be required for webcam input. The game that we tested with is one that I came across while researching image processing and gesture input. This programme recognises both of the players hands and moves a bar on screen from side to side reflecting the players horizontal movement. In the video, you can see Emilia demonstrating how it works.

This test was helpful to see how it work and evaluate what we need to do next:
