What is Gorilla.irl?
It is the real life version of the online 90s game ‘Gorilla.bas’. Since Gorilla.bas itself is a retro game, we also wanted to make sure to keep the retro game feel by recreating physical arcade-like controls. We also added various sound effects to add to create a more engaging gaming experience.
Vision
Since the original game relies heavily on the concept of projectile motion, we hope that the physical Gorilla.irl is able to illustrate the concept. We hope that through the game, players are able to grasp the physics concept while having fun.

Project Progression
This came after we decided to create a fully physical game
This helped us quickly get a sensing of the full scale of our project.
It is truly touching to see the evolution from our cardboard prototype to its current acrylic form.
We even made a way to store it easily!
Below is a 3D model of our final product for better visualisation.
