Maker Faire Reflection

Overall, my expectations were met at Maker Faire; I was really pleased that people came up to play the game that we all made.  Next time, I would like to spend more time on the project and contribute more to it than  I did for this one.  Maker Faire was really amazing.  It was like a combination of a county fair, flea market, museum, and a science fair all at one.  It was really cool to see the mechanical giraffe and R2D2.  I was also intrigued by the figures made from wood and soda bottles.  From the surveys, I noticed that although many of the people that played the game enjoyed it and would recommend it to a friend, few would actually buy it.  They mentioned aesthetics that were just okay and weak AI.  A few suggested weapons to fight off the guards and clues to the maze.  In an improved version of this game, I would like to see fighting options and better guards.  I think it would make the game more fun if you could view the maze from above but while viewing it, you would not be able to move and would be vulnerable to attack.
