Features:
• Designed around the orbiTouch Keyless Keyboard!
• Teaches low-dexterity typing!
• Through color/direction combinations!

Description:
Created from the game loop up in JavaScript, this prototype fleshes out the basic “whack-a-mole” (although I like to think of it as “shoo-a-kitty”) mechanic, giving the user a cat of a particular color in any of the eight cardinal or intercardinal directions and a corresponding character (letter/number/other) with which the user can begin to associate that color/direction combination. Kitty Kitty Bang! Bang! is intended as a “Typer Shark” for keyboards designed for users with low finger dexterity. Won third place in the Reverse Pitch Challenge 2016 at the Make It Possible Abilities Tech Expo by the Conductive Education Center of Orlando (CECO).
