Midterm Post: The Mysterious Case of Ringing Rocks

My Midterm project was inspired by Ringing Rocks State Park in Pennsylvania. The rocks in the park made unusual ringing noises when hit correctly. There is no exact reason as to why or what causes them to do this, some say that they are “alien rocks”. After visiting it over summer, I grew interested in the idea of Aliens creating these rocks. When the project was assigned I thought that using processing to create my own sci-fi fiction interactive narrative would be a great idea. I began the project by creating my characters, rocks, and spaceship by using illustrator. I then created all four scenes separately and later combined them all together with navigation. Although I was not able to add sounds and other elements we have not learned, I am happy with what I was able to create.

Scene 3: The dog has been abducted by aliens but they become friends.

 Scene 4: After the aliens return the dog, the dog is left with a mysterious sounding rock and creates Ringing Rocks State Park.
