A Foam Pit - DevLog

When I was assigned to create a game with no objective and simply make a toy, I was stuck. First I wanted to make a game where you match shapes to their desired holes. Like the square goes in the square hole. A Sphere goes in the sphere hole. And so on. But then, that was considered having an objective.

Next, I wanted to make a gravity gun that picks up items and throw them onto targets. I made the physics code for the items, but then after I was done coding that, I realized that it also had an objective. I was stuck again. What can I make as a toy that would be fun to play with? Especially one with no objective? Then it hit me. Why not make a foam pit?

So that's what I did. I made a really ugly looking foam pit. But it didn't matter how ugly it was, or how polished it was, people played my game and had a good time. It's fun being in a foam pit. If you've never been in one, try it out. It's hard to get out of, but in my game, it's easy to fly out.
