Drone Training Simulator

A virtual reality simulation that allows the user to fly a drone in simulated real-life environments and weather conditions. The player will be able to navigate through maps based on real world locations, practice flying under specific weather conditions, and receive feedback based on specific regulations that the player needs to follow.

Automata Rabbits

A game about catching rabbits in a maze. The maze represents a Finite State Automaton. Each rabbit follows a path through the maze according to the rules of the FSA and their assigned name. The player must figure out how the FSA works in order to catch each rabbit, and return them to the start.

The Labyrinth of Pushdown

This game is intended to act as a teaching aid to help visualize pushdown automata. The automaton is portrayed as a large maze. Each room represents a state, and there are hallways in between them which represent transitions. The player will act as the active state, moving around the maze. While navigating, they must adhere to the rules established by the pushdown automaton (they are only able to take a transition if they have the corresponding value on the top of their stack). Each time they transition to a new state, the corresponding symbol/string of symbols is written to their sword. By the time they reach the accepting state, they will have written a valid string for the language upon their sword. They will then be taken to a short quiz level, asking them to identify the language of the PDA they just traversed.

Purrfect Pizza

Purrfect Pizza is a virtual reality cooking simulation game meant to help teach the concept of the pumping lemma for regular languages in CS 3110, Formal Languages and Automata. This concept states that all strings or words of a sufficient length in a regular language may have a middle section of the string repeated an arbitrary number of times to produce a new string that is also part of the language. The game aims to create a fun, gamified demonstration of the essential concepts of the pumping lemma. This is accomplished by different cooking behaviors from the sous chefs as well as the ingredients needed to finish a pizza.
