Discussions and a change of tact

Mel has now started to recover for being ill. We have talked about it and think we should try to get the work done to our best standard for the deadline as we still have a week until it. We are going to meet and work out the best plan of action for this.
We think the app will probably now be a lot more basic due to the lack of time, but we still want to make an organism that in some way can live on its own.


Our rabbit has now slowly starting to take shape, after some discussions and research we have decided to change a few elements in the application as we feel it will work best this way and it will also remove the need for buttons to control the digital organism. The rabbit will now follow the movements of the mouse, this will mean that the user can have an influence on the way the rabbit moves without any clicking.

With this addition in mind we are also going to make it possible for the user to physically move the rabbit to the different areas in his living space, i.e the food, the water, his bed, hazards etc.

We may let the rabbit roam on a random path with the user is not using them but this will mean the rabbit will have to avoid obstacles and go to food and bed on it own.
