Mind-Guardian

Inspiration

We wanted to address individual mental health and insecurities by practising positive reinforcement and healthy mindset strategies.

What it does

It allows a user to practise using a positive mindset when faced with negative thoughts while playing a fun game with comforting graphics. The demon represents our intrusive, bad thoughts that is said against us. The user must defend themselves from these negative thoughts by choosing positive mindsets to take it down.

How we built it

Took inspiration from previous games and altered it to fit our goals Used python to code our game using pygames Used language AI to implement our questions and answers for user to read and respond Used Figma for prototype

Challenges we ran into

We encountered lots of issues with graphics, including animating the character’s movement We also had trouble implementing the Cohere API In execution, the app crashes due to a heavy load The amount of time to work on it

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We all learned how to use Pygame and successfully implemented our fi We are proud of our visualisation with high quality graphics and animation

What we learned

How to implement Cohere language AI How to use Figma for wireframing Create a game using pygames Add characters and implement their actions and movement Implemented the characters interactions through shooting and decreasing one’s health Set up a menu frame

What's next for Mind Guardian: Conquer the Demons Within

Enabling user to customise character Adding different levels for physical and mental health Making it into an app for users to play on the go Allow the user to click and choose which option
