Somethings that could have been done to optimize our project was to have a more efficient ball return. Currently you have to take the ball out of the score hole and put it in the ball return. Also we could have created a better ramp for the game. The ramp is functional, but it could be lowered so it would be a little more of a challenge. I also think that we could have made the score holes bigger so there would be a decreased chance of the ball falling into a corner.
Present solution
Over all our Cardboard Arcade was pretty effective. When playing the game there were no difficulties in the operations of the game. As for the design, I feel that if there was more time then we could have improved design more. We also could have added the planned ball return to the ski ball platform. When it comes to the rings on the board, they could have been bigger to make the game a little more challenging, but we lacked the time to do that. Our design dose solve the problem by creating a fun game that also meets criteria. When in the constructing process we decided to split up and build different parts of the arcade to get done faster. First, we brainstormed ideas and did research. Then, we constructed the arcade, then we presented our project
