WEEK 11 (final project)

My Final Project Proposal

For my final project, I’m creating a gacha-style character pulling game built with p5.js. Players can perform single pulls or 10-pulls to reveal randomized characters of different rarities. Each pull displays fully illustrated card artwork, and the player gradually builds a collection over time.

Knowns

• I am using p5.js for drawing, layout, animation, and the card reveal system.
• Characters have rarities (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Super Rare, Legendary).
• Pulls use a weighted randomness system.
• The game supports both Single Pull and 10-Pull modes.
• I track the player's collection and count duplicates.
• All character art is loaded as PNG card images stored in /public/cards.
• The UI for pulling is built with regular HTML buttons (not p5 buttons).
• The canvas is responsive and centered using Bootstrap.
• The layout mimics professional gacha UIs.

Unknowns

• What sort of animation effects to use on rare or legendary pulls.
• Whether to add sound effects for reveals.
• Whether to include a detailed card information popup on click.
• If I want multiple banners with different character pools.
• Whether to save the collection using localStorage.
• How large the final character pool will be.
• Whether to include animated backgrounds or particle effects.
• Possible UI refinements for the “collection” panel.
• If I want to add a pity meter for guaranteed high-rarity pulls.
