So, our team took some time to come up with an idea. We didn’t know what we wanted to make so we came up with some ideas. We were thinking of many already existing games, but we didn’t know what to do with them. Basically, coming down to just thinking of the game but with no spin on it when the game came up. So, while in thought, we came up with an existing game which I'm going to call look opposite where someone points in a direction and the player must face the opposite direction of the one pointing. So that game was already well known on TikTok, so we had to make a spin on it. I think I was the one who mentioned how there are some rock paper scissors games where if you lose, you must become their fan and follow them around until they are the last ones left. So, we decided to try and make the game a combination of games. The part with the fans after you lose with the rock, paper, scissors, and the look opposite game on TikTok. We think that’s a good idea and there will probably be more rules later on since we only had a limited time to think about it. Like there could be umpires that host it and they would be the ones pointing in opposite directions. <span class="NormalTextRun SCXW43894901 BCX0" <they="" would="" be="" the="" ones="" pointing="" in="" directions.="" <="" span="">If not that then each player that faces each other would take turns pointing and look in different directions. If the game were to be played on a large scale, then there would probably be multiple groups of people and each group would shrink its size when multiple people lose. This then lets other people in other groups try and challenge the winner of each group. There are still many different ideas that can be <span class="NormalTextRun SCXW43894901 BCX0" <there="" are="" still="" many="" different="" ideas="" that="" can="" be="" <="" span="">used,</span> and we may implement more rules in the future. I think that this form of thinking relates back to folk games. The rules that we came up with were simple and easy to understand. There wasn't any equipment that we needed to know how to use. Lastly, the game that we came up with was easy to understand and anyone could play. So far, the exercise that required us to come up with an original idea was a lot harder than I thought. There is more required effort to think of a game that hasn't already been made yet. But at the same time, it challenges our minds and makes us think in ways that we haven't before. </span>
