ChemPop

The goal in our video game is to build chemical structures given 4 different shapes with randomized atom combinations, similar to how players are given random shapes in Tetris. First, the player is shown a picture of the chemical structure. Subsequently, the player must replicate the chemical structure that was shown within a time limit displayed by a blue bar. The player must also place shapes within a time limit shown with a green bar on the side, or a random piece gets placed. Sometimes the random piece can be helpful or detrimental to the player. Players are awarded bonus points for completing chemical structures correctly, quickly, and by using shapes that are generally difficult to use, such as the triangle. Once the player completes all 13 chemical structures, they get a final score that they can share with their friends.
