change age!!!!!
Now we have to change the age group that we had as this age group is to sophisticated for our game so we were thinking of going down an age group from 4-6 instead but we have to do more research and change our questions to be more relevant to the game.

Technology
For our technology we were planning on using a GPS type system I thought that some how there would be a way to use it inside but there isn't so we are still going to use a controller type object that the child carries around but we are thinking of using more switches and triggers to show when the child enters the right place there has been different ideas floating around our mind. One which we are thinking of about most is using a QR Code Generator which takes an image and if you have the app/ software you can take a picture if the image and it will link you to what page you set it too.
This seems like the best idea as we can have the image on the controller and once the child show the image to the camera it will be triggered.
Another idea which would make the game run smoother and quicker would be if we got id tags/ cards which are like the tags that do be on clothes in the shop . . . . . these are used to trigger alarms which would make it capable of triggering what we want it to and when.
Here is another mood board of different switches were planning on using.

Animations
We have small animations done of the monkey the pirate and the invisibility helmet sadly I don't know how to put them on this but if I find out I will.
Slight story change
You are a monkey in a mysterious jungle, this jungle is on an island which is being invaded by pirates who kidnapped the monkeys mother. To help his mother he must go as fast as possible to the invisibilty machine that was left within mount crown plaza so he can rescue his mother from the pirate.
To power the invisibilty helmet you must answer all the questions right to gather 4 bananas to power the invisibilty helmet and to rescue his mother, be safe from the pirate and live happily ever after.
The questions will be placed in stations around a building for the child to find using the controller.
If the child doesn't answer the question right they have to go back one question unless it's the first question which they will get two chances at.
Sounds
Here are a few sounds that we plan on using somewere in our game they will add to the game and bring it more to life.
We also found out that real life sounds work better so next year around march we are going to go to the zoo to record animals and also to a forest to record birds and water flowing using an edirol to record.
Then they will be edited on protools and put onto our game.
