• Feature 4: User can set shape of created GameObject
  • Input: Shape dropdown on bottom left of screen.

• Feature 8: Random shape size toggle
  • Input: Random shape size toggle on the bottom left of the screen
  • Output: The size of newly drawn shapes
  • Description: When shapes are drawn with this toggle selected, the size of the shapes will be random. This can manifest as shapes being bigger or smaller, but also as them appearing squashed or stretched.
• Feature 9: Timed Clear
  • Input: Current time, timed clear toggle, and seconds slider.
  • Output: Clock, when/if shapes should be cleared from the board
  • Description: There is a clock at the bottom of the screen which shows the current time. When the user has the timed clear toggle enabled, the board will be erased at a regular interval. This interval (between 1 and 10 seconds) can be set using the slider.
• Feature 10: Sweeper shape clearing

• Feature 11: Shape spawn animation
  • Input: Animate spawn toggle on bottom left of screen.
  • Output: A distortion animation on shapes when they are drawn (excluding pinwheel).
  • Description: When the shape spawn animation toggle is enabled, as new shapes are drawn they will undergo a brief transformation animation causing them to look distorted. As the pinwheel in feature 12 already has an animation, it is excluded from this.
• Feature 12: Pinwheel shape
  • Input: Pinwheel selection on shape dropdown on the bottom left of screen.
  • Output: Spinning pinwheel being drawn when user clicks
  • Description: When “pinwheel” is selected in the shape dropdown, the user can draw with a pinwheel shape. This is the same behavior as drawing with a sphere, cube, or cylinder by left clicking or holding left click. Unlike the other shapes, this one will rotate like it was a pinwheel.
