GAM 720 week 01:04 Paper fortune teller (cooties)

-
Instead of a deck of cards... Could a different device interact with the game/narrative ?
Could I use sewn paper and conductive thread to create a soft circuit attached to a breadboard and Arduino... would that work?

Paper Fortune teller

  • Ask a question 
  • Choose one of 4 images with a word 
  • Count the number of letters in that word 
  • Choose one of 4 numbers 
  • Count that number 
  • Chose one of 4 letters a,b,c or d
  • Read that answer 

E-Textiles 

The device touches all centre points initially. 
Then 1 and 2 touch with 3 and 4 touching 
Then 1 and 3 touch with 2 and 4 touching 
This repeats for the first choice and then the second choice 
Then the device is opened to reveal the answer 

Where points connect the circuit is completed 
It is disconnected when shifting to the next position 
And reconnected when shifted back. 
There are two circuits. 
There will be different patterns of on/off depending on the number chosen 
This number could trigger a screen response which reveals the answer as a short animated sequence. 
There would be 16 short animations. 


The device could be embedded within the game play/narrative.

As it's currently possible to build and install custom Metaquest environments, I am building a Custom Home in the style of Lunarium, a paper puzzle adventure game. Although it is currently rumoured that new updates may remove the home environment all together in favour of augments, digital 3D Assets that can be placed within the users real play space.  Work flow                1. Build game on Unity 2019.4.              2.  using Probuilder Models and painted lit paper textures                     3.  Upgrade to Unity 2022.3 LTS                    4.  Create Empty Game Asset and group all Metaworld assets under the new empty.                    5 . Highlight and export as Gltf file      ...
