Design Project Day 3

descriptions match game?
i think the game does not match because we put middle school students but we think elementary students would be better because the game is better for smaller children than bigger.

powerful ideas that we want to keep?
that is has colors
a prize
many balls with dares and riddles
the holes in the box are shapes

leave of to simplify the game
make the holes for you to put your hand in bigger

what needs to be done
1. cut the cardboard to make a perfect box.
2. paint the outside of the box different colors
3. in the top part of the box make different shaped holes so that you can stick your hand in
4. put the different color balls in
5. put the prize in the golden ball
6. write the instructions

supplies:
1. colorful balls (cristina)
2. paint (carito)
3. icopor (torillo)

Design Project Day 1

Partners

Define Phase
1. Middle school both
2. Difficulty level: medium
3. What makes it fun: Colorful
                                 innovative
                                 not that easy
                                 complex
                                 images
                                 well made (doesn't fall apart)
                                 tricky

Research Phase

this game was fun because it had music and a lot of colors. it had different levels and different games. what the could include in the video is showing how people interact and are able to play and use the game.

this game is really fun and really well made because you have to catch the tickets in the air and theres limited time for this. something that could be improved is the way tickets go into the air because some of them stay in the floor and people grab them (cheating).

it is super awesome because it is hard and very very entertaining  what could be changed is a little bit more color and more things or created stuff that makes it more fun. 

Ideation Phase 
1. Brainstorm:
- throw a ball through a ramp that elevates the ball and then goes into a hole were there are different types of points. \
- a box with holes and a throw a ball and each hole is different points.
- a maze with a marble and maybe different levels
- Go fishing for something(balls) each ball means a different things

2. fun idea: idea #4
- different colors
- different balls
-different textures
- colorful box
- can be played with many
- it has dares

3. things that can go wrong
-kids steal the balls
-destroy the balls
- the balls loose their colors
- box gets destroyed
- people dont do the dares

how to avoid it: create balls with special colors and textures so they dont get damaged and the box as well.
