Pfanni Factory Manager Release status: experimental [box doku]
Description	A management game with original IO
Author(s)	tarwin

Synopsis

Build a game of process management using original factory IO (status panel, switches, lamps, buttons).

Game concept

A game of high intensity micromanagement! You have 120 seconds to deliver the most delicious spud products!

• Control input speed of raw materials
• Watch out for overloading / clogging the pipes
• Fill the mixer machines to a certain level for them to be most effective and watch out for overheat
• look at the recipie!
• don't clog or overload the conveyor!
• get the produce in the right storage, and don't overfill
• When delivery is running, don't load more stuff into it or the lorry will break
• difficulty setting is slow/medium/fast step speed -> translates into higher points
• Retweet your score that the machine is tweeting after every game. ;-)

Hardware

• status panel
• old school buttons, knobs, switches, lamps, gauges in operation panel
• Raspberry Pi?
• Wifi (for remote management, ease of update and twitter)
• sound output (lorry reversing / driving off, game over, ...)
• LEDs, maybe loose WS2812 to save GPIO pins or normal leds with shift registers
• Bulbs would be cooler but a lot more hassle to get to work and a lot more expensive.
• some kind of stand (Maybe Werkbox can help?)

Software

• Python!
