Bunny Jump - Severe Jeans

This week we worked on our code in general and made multiple changes to the box. We added another spot to plug in a different button. Tyler has started a new cad document for our official box to be sent to get printed.

We have limited time to work on our poster board. After finalizing the code and trying to get the box to cad, we ended up working on our poster board. We moved our finalized mission statement onto the board as well. Here is me writing on the poster.

Here is our unfinished printed CAD and our game.

We added multiple ways for the game to be set up, looking at  switch statements in C++. This also allowed us to have more possibilities with the bunny sprite jumping, triggered by possibly other switches that could be plugged in. One of the wires pins broke in the arduino pin hole, and the wire had to be switched out.

Throughout these days, we worked on finalizing our code and finalizing our box. 

The only errors that had occured throughout these days was 2 of our wires breaking the day of delivery day, but we fixed that by editing our code. We also fixed the organization of the wires and this led to us finding out one of the pins were stuck, so we managed that out and everything was final. 

This week we're working on getting our code finalized and working out all the bugs. We're making difficulty levels for the game, and the button has been connected.

We're sending our box out to be printed, with all our designs finalized, a hole on top was added for the button to go in.

We've given our neopixels coordinates and have letters moving on the neopixels. We're working on converting these to make the bunny animations and hurdles.

We also are changing our layout for the frame. We're removing the front panel and adding it as a front piece that can be screwed on. We're also adding extra support beams.

we got the neopixels to turn on, yet we are still working on getting them to light up in columns instead of  rows. 

we are still working on the code for the game, however we have run into some problems due to lack of knowledge about the program. 

we fixed up the onshape structure, we thought the original build was too bulky so we went with legs. we're thinking of doing a plug in button instead of a button on the design. we'll fix up the structure if it doesn't go well. 

Made some progress in creating the frame board, currently trying to make the button aspect where it pops out from the frame

Designed the prototype bunny sprites (bunny running, bunny jumping) 

Trying to make the CAD design fit with the actual LED boards

Designed the base prototype game (bunny on grass, carrots, sky in the background, bunny design, what type of game) 

Today we

• Sketched (on paper) our model for what we want our game to look like
• Decided on what game we are doing and what program we are using
• Created cards in basecamp for all our steps
• Created OnShape document to cad
