Round Puzzles

I may be too focused on this puppetry idea. I decided to start creating something to get others feedback and to branch out from my puppet idea. I have created some ring puzzles in processing that have some relation to the puppetry layering system Master > Puppet > Puppet's puppet. It is not a very strong link to go with but it is a step forward that will allow me to evaluate some more. If I don't look so much into the puppetry and maybe into the work and the surroundings of the work I should have more interest. At the moment it is too literal and will need some development.

My ring puzzle game of a gradient of colours
The game is be played by two players, each has to try and 'fix' the image by turning the rings until it goes back to its original image. There is a timer to get the players amount of time it took them to complete the puzzle. The rings are setup randomly so there can be a tilt in favor for one player.

The game can be found here.

I think by me making a brief earlier on in the week has really got me set on the puppet master concept too much, but now I am creating something without a concept. I don't know what is worse, creating something without a solid reason behind it or having a thought out concept with nothing to show for it. Probably the creation is better.

As a group I see it becoming individual projects unless we can create a link between everyones work. We wouldn't want it to be confusing and chaos with 7 pieces of work together. I see us discussing next week how we will approach the critique and see where we can go from there.
