Project Objective


Create a 1D game and a custom human-interface device (HID) for controlling it.



Description

A two-player collaborative and competitive game where your teammate can turn into your enemy, demanding caution with the changing environment to mine the gold within a limited time.









Prototype

Initial Physical Interaction

Our original idea is to replicate the movements and actions of workers in the field as accurately as possible, focusing on capturing their full-body gestures. 

The Player One is controlling a pole,  representing navigating uncertain environments. The Player Two, the bomb man, is holding and inspecting a large, heavy object resembling a bomb.
