Week 6

This week I only went to 1 out of the 2 meetings. I was sick since last Friday, on Wednesday I went to school but felt very ill afterwards, Thursday I wasn’t feeling much better so after that day I stayed at home and took some rest.

But during the meeting I made a sketch for how we wanted the board game to look like. We decided that the round shapes probably wouldn’t work so we made them square shaped. We also thought about making a small stair or small steps on the side so they can climb the steps with the pawn to go to the next layer of the board game. We also thought about the look and feel. At first we wanted to use black and grey’s since the portal turns grey once the parents find out about it. But we asked the rest of our group members on what we should do and we all agreed to kind of simulate the colors we would use for the portal, and which were used in the background. So we came to the conclusion to use loads of black, blue’s, purples, and pink tones.

We wanted to make the steps look like paint splatters, later on we decided to use a different color every 6 steps. Since we use a dice kids can never move more than 6 steps each time they roll the dice. The board game will contain only one pawn, so the kids need to work together to get to the top and close the portal.

Next week we will continue working on the board game and sketch an interface for the app. We also need to redo our monsters since some of the kids wanted theirs to look more human like or more like the one’s they drew.
