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.

Contributions

Game design and programming in a three-person collaboration for Global Game Jam 2016.
