Final project
From idea to final result
Project proposal or idea
For this project, I've been thinking about a machine I played when I was younger, and to be honest, I haven't seen it since, and it was a lot of fun. It's a combination of football/soccer and pinball.
It consists of a playing field like that of a football/soccer table, but instead of several longitudinal bars with players, there are only what we could call goalkeepers, one on each side.
At each goal, there are two flippers whose objective is to stop the ball and propel it towards the opposite goal. The flippers will resemble the hands of a soccer goalkeeper and will be responsible for striking the ball and propelling it towards the goal.The flippers launch the ball whenever their activation button or joystick is pressed. Each player has two buttons, one for each flipper.
The objective is to control the ball and score a goal in the opposing net.
The playing field slopes gently towards each goal and has rounded corners to ensure the ball always reaches the goal regardless of its speed and can be easily propelled.
An arch will be added in the center with a screen for each player displaying the score and remaining time.
Each time a goal is scored, a sensor located in each net will detect that the ball has entered and credit the player with a goal. The ball re-enters the net through a hole on one side. To make it more challenging, several balls can be in play simultaneously.
The player who scores the most goals within the allotted time wins.
Colorful visual effects can be added to indicate each goal scored and when the game time has expired.
