Adobe Tech Stack Racer

About The Tech Stack Racer:

To engage the IT and Marketing crowd at Adobe conferences, we created a marble-run game that requires IT and Marketing to work together to solve puzzles that allow the marble to advance to the next stage. We completed the experience with a custom leaderboard and paved the way for IT and Marketing to work in perfect harmony.

• Company: Adobe, We Like Small, Standard Transmission Production

Process:

This is the first project when I joined Standard Transmission. I continued to build the control system of the game machine. Also, I wrote different light effects for the arcade game. One of the challenges I encountered was the position of each motor on the machine. People on-site may switch the motor when the motor is broken. But each motor has a fixed position that people easily miss the right position when they replace it. To make sure they can switch motors at the correct place, I numbered each motor and cast its position and laser-cut pattern board for each motor.
