Scaffolding Prototype Review

 The concept of my controller is to make it look like a gardening glove while playing the game Plants vs Zombies. When you play the game, the main thing you are doing is planting plants in a garden to defend from zombies. What better controller than gloves for those plants! For the controller, I have the Circuit Playground Express on the back of the glove. Its function is to connect to all the switches and is being used as the accelerometer. Then the alligator clips connect to the pressure sensor on the palm of the hand. I then have the flex sensors on the thumb and the index finger. 

The two questions I have is how can I add more spice to my controller to make it more unique. The other question is what should I use to clamp everything down to the controller? Would regular tape just work? 

I currently do not have a working controller. I am trying to do some research on how to get it to work and I need to clamp everything down with tape before I start to test. I need to look into soldering the sensors. 













There is no video since I was not able to get this prototype done and working in time for the video.
