Digital Alphabet Blocks

A performance game by Stephen Ng

The game involved hardware and software, consisting of six 8-inch wooden cubes with an LED letter displayed on one side, plus a video game component displayed on a projector. Rearrange the cubes to make words and score points. The screen shows your current set of letters so the audience can follow along. Periodically, a letter falls from above to replace one of your existing letters. Groups played in teams of four--three people to manipulate the cubes, and a spotter to help make words and anticipate new letters.

All the code is available on GitHub. The video game part is playable on a computer; contact the designer for more details.
