One aspect of the pandemic I am sorely missing is being able to travel outside of Buffalo. I was planning a Trip to Germany over the summer for a friends wedding and another trip for an event Colorado ; both events were cancelled due to the pandemic. It&#8217;s been almost six months and there are no new trips planned for the future. (I can&#8217;t make a day trip to Toronto or Manhattan.)  I was using the summer as an opportunity to ride my bike around the city and explore some areas around Buffalo, I visited the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural Site (which was incidentally, walking distance from my house) and the Karpeles Manuscript Museum library  (also near my house). It&#8217;s not the same, but it&#8217;s nice to explore parts of the city I haven&#8217;t seen before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One afternoon I was on Buzzfeed taking one of the quizzes and I started thinking of ways to change my project and make it into a quiz game, with Buffalo focused questions. It is pretty straightforward, you make a choice, then you learn some facts about your choice then you are routed to a new question. It isn&#8217;t a challenging game, exactly, but it is well developed with thirteen questions. I took my professors suggestions, and it is running nicely. I made a new logo and a bunch of slides and tried to redevelop this project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"835\" height=\"940\" src=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/Screen-Shot-2020-12-09-at-1.33.42-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26\" srcset=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/Screen-Shot-2020-12-09-at-1.33.42-PM.png 835w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/Screen-Shot-2020-12-09-at-1.33.42-PM-266x300.png 266w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/Screen-Shot-2020-12-09-at-1.33.42-PM-768x865.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 835px) 100vw, 835px\" \/><figcaption>If anyone is feeling mildly adventurous, please let me know what you think.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/QR-CODE-LARGE-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24\" srcset=\"https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/QR-CODE-LARGE-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/QR-CODE-LARGE-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/comdma.com\/sanjoy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/131\/2020\/12\/QR-CODE-LARGE.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I appreciated was the feedback from Maze, which was more constructive than for project one. I was mostly interested in confirming the QR code is working, but I got some good feedback on how to make the game more user friendly, and the suggestions were appreciated. I met with my professor this morning and got some more feedback and suggestions. Overall I am happy with how the project progressed. The more I worked with Figma, the more comfortable I got with the platform and at the end, I got to learn some interesting tricks. I look forward to using this platform in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The objective for this project was to design an app for social distancing.
