CHALLENGES

Try these challenge prompts to modify the code we've written. Don't get frustrated if you can't figure them all out — some are intended for more practiced programmers:

  1. Try changing the colors of the objects when they collide. Hint: look in the draw() section.
  2. Can you make something else interesting happen when collision occurs? Objects change size, move across the screen, etc?
  3. Our Point/Point collision is very finicky: you have to be in the exact location of the other point for the collision to trigger. Can you modify the code to include a "buffer zone" where collision happens, even if the two points aren't actually touching?
