Our controller is for the game Fireboy and Watergirl, and its design is a split hand held controller for two players. One controller is meant for Fireboy controls, which is using a potentiometer for left and right movement, and an accelerometer to detect shaking for jumping. The accelerometer is the one built into the Circuit Playground Express. The other half is meant for Watergirl controls, which also uses a potentiometer for left and right movement, and has a sound sensor for jumping. There is also another part of the controller that uses potentiometers for mouse movement, and a photoresistor for left-click. To distinguish which control is which, we colored Watergirls blue and Fireboys red.
Questions:
Do you think it would be better to have the mouse controls be integrated with either Watergirl or Fireboy’s controller? Or is it being a separate controller better?
Do you think the controllers being in the shape of a diamond would be uncomfortable to hold?
