Lepidoptera – fly away little moth!

DESIGNER'S OWN WORDS: for this project i decided to use examples from the library of processing. The fondation is the simulation of flocks, which fly in the respective size. the idea is

to integrate a hit counter, so if my mouse were hit by a flock, something else must be done – in this case it comes an game-over screen. it is very nice and funny but not really

interactive. so i decided to use the webcam of each computer. the brightnesstreacking from the processing library was a perfect basis to integrate it in my game. so to control lepidoptera

(the moth and figure of this game) you must play with a flashlight or laserpointer. by the way you can see on one screenshot an interaction with a mobilphone which lights with the camera.

the hole game was made with processing and the graphics in photoshop cs3. I think that this game is a nice possibility to interact with an computer. furthermore there is a huge motivation by

beating the highscore. people of any age hve fun – i am sure! start-screen the game game-over screen lepidoptera figure person is playing thomas noschka jul 07, 2011 previous next
