Story

There is a game called poppit. The objective of our team was to find a way to gather information and figure out if there an easier way to play the game. We started our objective by splitting up and playing the game. As we played the game we took down information to find a pattern

Decision List

List all formal decisions made with links to their documentation such as a decision tree or decision matrix.

Material List

     2. Poppit download
     3. Engineering notebook

Software List

      POGO. EXE 
      Google Chrome. EXE (Necessary in order to play the game)

Tutorials

1. Begin By Downloading The Chunk Poppit game into Your Computer (If You Have Not Already)(Direct Link[1])

2. Then begin analyzing the dynamics of the game.

3. Record 40 trails of attempting the game at different angles or approaches.

4. Record in engineering notebook

5. Draw Conclusions

Next Steps

Figure out different kinds of pattern for popping balloons other than doing it randomly, starting from bottom, or starting from the top.
