I simultaneously had a really fun time with this project while I’m also extremely happy I’m finished.

Anyone who’s played the Nintendo game Animal Crossing will recognize this character as KK Slider. Animal Crossing has always been one of my favorite series, and I thought that it was fitting to do a project related to it for this assignment because the game plays in real time as well.

The musical notes represent seconds, audience members minutes, and coffee mugs hours.

I had a lot more trouble with this than I expected too. I got stuck on more than a few off by one errors, and its probably the most graphically complex project I’ve made for this class so far. I had a really hard time with plotting out the acoustic guitar (it’s still a bit lopsided but much better now). I ended up writing a program that would let me click on the screen where I wanted to place my dots and then would print the array of coordinates. It also removed the most recent coordinate when you clicked a key because it was very easy to mess up, and I didn’t want to have to start over entirely.

Altogether this project was fun and I’m really proud of what I made! (My code is super long so I’m crossing my fingers for no missed style errors.)
