Dance Machine
Above is my dance machine I created for the Arcade section. This was a fun product to make as it includes multiple parts in order to get the full item. I made the dance floor which when textured has 5 sections for the feet to be placed on. In addition there is a hand rail behind to add support for the user. Finally there is a TV screen directly in front which would display the dance game connected to the floor.
Although I believe I did a good job in creating this, there is still some aspects I would change in the future. One of these being separating the floor in to two parts so the TV isn’t standing on the same section. This would just make the full product look a bit cleaner. In addition I would attempt to make the TV section more advanced to look more like a machine you would see in real life.
Air Hockey Machine
Above is the Air Hockey Machine which would be placed in the arcade. This machine Includes a pitch, a puck and two puck mallets as well as a barrier to separate the two side. Although this wasn’t directly inspired by any existing machine, I did take note that I would have to make sure these items are included, or else the machine would not function properly. In addition to this, I made holes for the goals, which is where the pucks would fall down into and class as a goal being scored.
If I were to create this again, I wouldn’t change much to the overall design as I believe it fits well, however I would clean up some of the edges and make it have features such as a score counter and a asset on the side for the user to place their tokens/coins into in order to play the machine.
