Our prototype controller is for the GBA port of the arcade game Mario Bros. We decided to focus on the plumbing and pipe aspect of the game, allowing players to connect to the role of the characters and the game world. The main design is a large curved pipe, with a turning water valve, hex nuts, and a POW block on top. Players will control the aspects of the pipe to influence the game mechanics. The valve wheel is connected to a potentiometer that controls the player’s left and right movement, while a second potentiometer controls the player’s jumping and crouching, turned by a wrench. A sound sensor is hidden in the POW block that will pause the game. Clicking the POW block on the top of the controller will instead toggle the running movement of the game. All of these aspects aim to immerse the player and satisfy them from a artistic and gameplay standpoint.
Feedback Prompts:
Would you rather have the wrench as a separate piece or a fixed attachment?
Would you want to use the crouch control in the game?
