We presented on that day and apparently, just as expected, everyone liked the Squeeze KL idea as this ticks all the check marks of the assignment requirements, unlike the other 2. We asked for some further critiques and advices for the other 2 ideas to know what mistakes we shouldn’t repeat.

Ron implied the idea titled "Your Life, Your choices" has a good idea but a horrible execution. It’s way too complicated and unfocused to the point I’m sure I’m putting everyone to sleep.

The “Train Through” idea isn’t very intriguing or interesting to draw people in since the core experience is to present information to the audience. It’s almost like lecturing.

And last for the best, once again, they liked “Squeeze KL”. The idea and execution tied together perfectly.

We decided to tweak the “Your Life, Your Choices” idea by taking the core experience and make it into something more interesting and simple. 

After some time of more brainstorming and more research, we landed on this concept of a jack-in-the-box with a couple of tweaks here and there. This is how it basically works.

Crank the Box
The box has 4 crank handles on each side.

To play the game, it requires at least 2 people to play because one person cannot control all 4 sides by him/herself.

Players has to turn the cranks, each in the desired direction and speed, all at the same time.

Once the precise speed is reached, there will be a gift that will automatically pop-out from the top of the box as a reward.

The gift will be a mini stress-ball and each individual stress-ball will be different from the other in terms of size (some slightly bigger), texture, color.

Squeeze KL
For the Squeeze KL, we found a way to make use of our material, silicone (or something similar to that), and implement it with digital medium. 

    -we are going to use this component called FSR (force sensitive resistor)

    -we are going to put the FSR inside the middle of the silicone

    -when people squeezes the silicone, the computer can detect how hard the person squeezes and the harder they squeeze, the brighter the light will emit, the more the sign board will 

    -when the person squeezes one silicone object at a certain pressure, the sign board will fill up slowly
