Depending on how long a game should take, the fungal growth can be observed normally or it can be scaled up digitally. – Most fitting would be a game over the span of 2-3 Days in order for a more complex mold pattern to be formed. | Depending on how long a game should take, the fungal growth can be observed normally or it can be scaled up digitally. – Most fitting would be a game over the span of 2-3 Days in order for a more complex mold pattern to be formed. | ||

To make the slimemold more interesting/ less disgusting, one could project a black and white silhouette of the fungal network on the ground/playing field and make it part of the environment/enemy. | To make the slimemold more interesting/ less disgusting, one could project a black and white silhouette of the fungal network on the ground/playing field and make it part of the environment/enemy. | ||

The growth of the slimemold can be manipulated by intensity and placement of light, temperature, the nutrient medium and distributed nutrition pallets. | The growth of the slimemold can be manipulated by intensity and placement of light, temperature, the nutrient medium and distributed nutrition pallets. | ||
The Interventions will not have imminent effects as the mold needs time to grow and adjust to the changes. | |||

The Mold would work well with a room sized playing field, since the slow growth could possibly still be observed by sizing a small part of nutrient medium with the mold on it up. | The Mold would work well with a room sized playing field, since the slow growth could possibly still be observed by sizing a small part of nutrient medium with the mold on it up. | ||
A Table would work with this idea as well (and this perimeter could be transgressed if needed, expanding the field to the whole room). – The growing speed is only about 1cm/hour! | |||
