After some people tried playing it, I got some feedback to improve on my UI, and some function issues need to be fixed. So I added the keyboard indication to make it more understandable for players. And with Munus help, the moving mechanism is now good for gaming.

This week, I learned how interactivity can completely transform the emotional impact of a design. By experimenting with variable typography, animated forms, and responsive color systems, I started to understand how code can turn a static poster into a living experience. I’m still curious about how to refine motion so it feels more intentional and expressive.

This week, I refined the coordinate and rotation logic so that flowers and butterflies attach naturally to a rotating planet, fixing issues where objects faced the wrong direction or drifted independently. I also reduced accidental spawning by stabilizing the hand and head tracking data and adjusting sensitivity and cooldown so that flowers appear only on clear, intentional movements. In addition, I improved the data flow between the web environment and Unity, increasing the reliability and stability of user interactions. Finally, I implemented a workaround for browsers’ default audio-autoplay restrictions, allowing ambient space sound to play automatically upon entering the page, creating a more immersive, space-like experience.

I want to make camera not in inverse version and make the motion more smoother.

Thank you sooo much, Professor Munus! I tried to shorten our reply(Lin and me), but I can't access to the spreadsheet anymore, so the texts are sticking(?) out from the speechbubble, and I don't know why, but the PDF file is not available to upload in this page, so, I uploaded the jpg files. Please bear with me!! I hid an easter egg in this zine. Have a great winter break:)
