Classify This- Ama Achampong
A Scavenger Hunt
https://editor.p5js.org/aatlove/full/wUrICZEr2
My concept for the Classifying This! project was a fun mini scavenger hunt game. I wanted people to be able to interact with the teachable machine used to help develop the game as well as get players moving.
Initially, the idea was to have the game be mobile, however, the p5.js does not work very well on a mobile device when the camera is involved. Thus, I made the game based on household items one would typically find in that particular environment.
What inspired my concept was a translator game using the teachable machine where the camera was focused on an item and then the machine would identify it. I figure an identification game similar to this was a scavenger hunt because you had to go out and deliberately find an item to see the machine work and translate it.
I made score there was a scoreboard to keep track of the player’s progress. In order to make the game more engaging, I added a timer to help make the player more motivated to find the items. Moreover, the layout of my game was inspired by Laura and her guess the color game. Although, something would love to continue working on was adding the sound effects. They were not loading, but once I get that up and running, it would certainly be more engaging.
