VVVV Session 2 - Study Task 4 (22/02/2018)

Study Task 4

We developed study task 1 by adding a sound detection feature using a node named 'BeatDetector'. When selecting the correct microphone and making a noise the toggle buttons would flash showing that a sound had been picked up and simultaneously, this switched the switch causing the text, text colour and background colour of the renderer to change.

Therefore it may seem that the industry has died down but this is mainly because most educational gaming companies find more su...

These are a number of wireframe sketches showing how I would gamify this application. I have improved the chat feature by: Changing the message box shape, Changing the 'recording' button to a permanent send button, Removing the WhatsApp camera button from the message box, Removing the ability to send an image/video using the WhatsApp camera in attachments, Removing the ability to send a contact to another contact in attachments, Changed the delivery report symbol to using colours (e.g. green = delivered, amber = sent, red = failure to send) Gamified Elements added: Adding an achievements feature where completing an objective the specific amount of times stated allows you to unlock customisable features in the app, When sending a document, image or audio/recording an animation will play. The user then can swipe up to post the media into the letter box which sends it to the contact or can swipe down to delete the media and cancel sending the media, Wirefra...
