Bizarre game: lecture_drawMode_3.lp

[meldckn]

This game (delete any that do not apply):

• Was confusing.
• Was difficult to play.
• Did not function according to the instructions.
• Was not appropriate for this scene.

Other comments/elaborations:

• Such a weird-behaving game. When you hold the mouse button, red triangles move for a short time, then rotate, then move forward for a short time, then rotate again, etc. Not sure if the weirdness of this behavior is in the rules or the compiler's implementation of them.
• Also, the rules say the goal is to produce blue, but I don't think there is a way to produce blue, just reduce it.
• And concentration doesn't seem to be going down over time, which should be required by the design intent for this scene.
• It's behavior is interesting to watch though.
