Instructions

It's the Year 2040 and humans and creatures from Earth are moving to Mars! Press Green Flag to Start... Then press A, B, C or D keyboard keys to help this friendly Alien correctly sort 20 objects and creatures into labelled special travel boxes for Planet Moving Day! Try not to leave anything important behind. You are leaving soon and only have 5 seconds to sort each object correctly (but how hard can it be, right...?)

Description

Made for Getting Unstuck Day 2 Inspired by @frjurado Reflection: Knew exactly what I wanted to create today! This was inspired by a conversation this morning with friends, and a cautionary computing tale from an article my friend had just read. I could picture roughly how I wanted this project to look and work before I started coding today. Had to test run with different timer lengths, but wanted users to feel flustered and pressured (like real last minute packing) so shortened the timer to 5 seconds per object/creature. Also wanted the game to feel random and illogical, (or maybe too logical, as it doesn't take human emotions into account)! Wanted this game to feel like a test, with multiple choice answers and no 'others' box, when you don't know how to answer. In this case, if there isn't a box that fits, you may be leaving something important behind on Planet Earth! Good Luck fellow humans <3
