Created by @gregatku for use in Coding Classes for Kids Unlimited, for whom I work as a Coding teacher. Vector Mode was used for drawing. Alignment of components was ensured by linking the 4 circles with 3 identical Rectangles, rotated so their sides just touch each other, forming an equilateral triangle inside the inner circle. See "Drawing a Finger Spinner" project for a "how to" Tutorial. Details of Keys hit and their impact: [KEY] = IMPACT [b] = Brighter (background darker) [c] = Colour effect (if too slow use [n]) [d] = Darker (background brighter) [f ]= Fisheye effect [g] = Ghost effect (background too) [m] = Mosaic effect [n] = Next costume [O] = move in Circles (on/off) [p] = Pixelate effect [w] = Whirl effect [X] = clones in each corner (on/off) [Z] = live spinners all point left [left -->] = spin faster [right -->] = spin slower [space] = reverse spin direction [0] = stop spinning [3] spin at 120 degrees (360 / 3) [6] spin at 60 degrees (360 / 6) [9] spin at 40 degrees (360 / 9) [up -->] = bigger [down -->] = smaller [1] = 100% Stage Click = background colour change Spinner Click = clear graphic effects
