Village Fete

With a start of a new term, the project beings. This time we're doing a "Village Fete" which involves balls and coconuts, booths and prizes. This is proving to be more exciting as each day passes with an ocean full of ideas flooding out of everyones minds. Ultimately we need to design and create a booth that will interest people to raise money for the local church roof and thus, here are some ideas thats been condured up.

Car football

Having 12 remote cars on a mini football pitch, try and knock the oversized ball into the net. Whoever scores a goal gets a prize. The more balls scored by one person, the better the prise.


Monster destory village

Control a mini machnical monster through a village and get a prize for knocking all the buildings down in the time limit.


Skate paint

Half pipe with two people on a skateboard with sprayed paint coming off the wheels.


Piano

Oversized piano that the user needs to complete a set amount of key strokes to win.


Stumps

Climb the stumps and get to the top. Certain stumps may light up which will need to be followed to successfully complete the challenge.


1/4 mile

Using the user's motion of an input device will power the onscreen vechicles down the end of the track. Quickeset movement wins the race.


Bend the pole

Test your strenght with "Bend the pole" and see how far you can pull it down. Much like throw the hammer but upside down. A ranking system will be means of beating the top score.


Tree climb

See how high you can climb the tree to get the apples. Get 10 apples in the time limit to win.


Finger path

Finger path your way through a maze and if by any chance you touch the maze walls, you will get a electric shock. Removing your finger from the maze will also result in failure.


Buggy paint

Much like "Skate paint", people peddle a small plastic car with paint being sprayed onto the wheels. More of your colour in the arena makes you the winner.


Roll bean bag

Mini bean bag inside a maze. Roll it to the end before it fills up with water.


Horse race

Cheer on your horse of choice to increase it's speed. Shouting or shaking the provided gambling tickets will increase your chances.


Clap

Visual sound wave which you'll need to replicate with clapping. Accurate clapping required.


Motion wave

Using visual motion detected by a camera, you'll be able to push a sound file around and destort the music.


These are just some of the ideas presented this past week and will be narrowed down into a favourite 2 or 3. After todays workshop on http://www.cycling74.com/products/maxmsp more ideas have poped up and will be making an addition to the list.
