I had a lot of fun with pressure project one! I really didn’t know what to make until one morning I was watering one of my many plants (i.e. my children) when it struck me: a plant watering game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Planty” is a little plant sprite that moves left and right on the screen when you press ‘a’ and ‘d.’ Below is Planty’s user actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving Planty moves the projector he’s being shown on. Planty’s actor then outputs the horizontal position so the droplets can tell where he is.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Planty wants to collect droplets, which make a little “boop” noise when he catches them. Below is the user actor for one of the droplets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although its kinda messy, the gist is that a signal into the droplet starts its falling. Another input tells the droplet Planty’s horizontal location. If Planty’s horizontal position matches the droplet’s while it is at a height of -30 or less (Planty’s height), it sends out a signal that will trigger the “boop.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The time constraint of the pressure project posed a bit of a challenge. This wasn’t because I didn’t have enough<\/em> time, but rather I had trouble tracking my time. I typically work on things through multitasking, so it was hard to track exactly how much time I was spending on the project (e.g. sometimes I would work on it while holding office hours for a class I TA, often pausing my work with students and then returning to it once they left). I estimated that I worked a little less than four hours, but perhaps a better method of time-keeping is needed for the next project. Overall I think the project was a success and I’m very happy with what I was able to produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water Planty and he will love you forever <3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
