We were inspired by the game - hot potato, it is a simple yet fun game. Our game is a metaphor of the atomic ticking bomb called Da Bomb. It is a 4 player game where you pass the ball around until the timer runs out. At the end of each round, whoever has the ball is out of the game.
We used a distance sensor and piezo to calculate when the ball was being thrown and caught. Each player chose a color. At the end of each round, whichever player was eliminated the LED light of that person would go off in the ball. We also placed a buzzer inside the ball, as the timer runs out the ticking sound would increase giving the sense of urgency for the players, adding a bit of complexity to the game. The form of the ball was 3d print in PLA material.
Overall this was a really fun and engaging game. To see everyone play our game and enjoy it was very satisfying and nice. We learnt to trust one another and plan the project in phases which helped us stay on track, fix last minute issues and overall deliver a fun game.
