For this project, I created a sloth-like creature that is continuously getting electrically shocked in the head by lightening in a hotdog storm. The lightening is created by turtles. I originally had lightening sounds that accompanied this project but was unable to have that due to the need of a local server.

Here is a screenshot of the project
