Cube Garden 2 Wish List - rowr111/cubegarden GitHub Wiki

Hardware

Specs

More memory

More sensors?

Master badge

Potentially use Arduino + phone for UI.

Software

Effects

Make the effects available to cycle through using the button configurable. Right now there are too many to cycle through. All effects can still be selectable in UI.

Create effect creation library with components for pulsing, color changes, fades etc + ways to combine them (blending etc.). Composite effects can also be combined with other effects. E.g. layer DB effect on top of any other effect. I'm sure there are examples of this out there.

Beat detection to improve the db effect. Right now it lags slightly behind the beat due to physics.

DB Effect

Make upper and lower loudness bounds adjust automatically to current sound environment Make limit always spark in white. Might look better?

Network

Mesh network?

Reliable networking?

Over-the-air updates

Would simplify effects development.

Other

Spacial awareness

Some cool effects would be enabled if the cubes knew where they were in relation to others. E.g. waves, special dance-floor effects etc.
