My concept was based around making a 3D modular outcome that was inspired by hand-held children maze toys. I based my design around a modular typeface I made called Alphanauts ( link below)
I designed this through using Adobe Illustrator and then using the laser cutter to cut out the different components out of the clear acrylic. To assemble the main body of the game I used 5mm acrylic dowl to secure the structure without any adhesive. However for the tracks inside the game I had to glue a small amount of clear glue to make sure they stay in place.
I really enjoyed the processes in making this, it was challenging getting the measurements correct in order for all the different parts to work together, and also learning how to use the laser cutter. However in the end I produced a fully functioning game, that takes shape of the letter "W" of my modular typography- and most importantly I learnt a set of new skills in which I will hopefully use future projects.
Thanks for viewing.
