In my last post I mention that I have decided on a controller. I decided to go with a glove controller. I haven't yet found out about the mechanics or how to go about making it, but I believe I have found the concept I will be going for. On the first stage of design I have the controller being a wearable glove and the buttons that you play frets on fire with will be on each of your five fingers, (for the sake of ease, let's just say your thumb is a finger). Each will have a different colour corresponding with the Frets on Fire buttons. On the bottom palm of your have will be a pressure pad for your 4 fingers and there will be a 2nd pressure pad for the 5th button on your thumb to connect to. For your main four fingers, you will tap them with the palm of your hand and your thumb will hit the left side of your palm just below the baby finger. There are a couple problems with this design however, as the awkwardness of the buttons could cause strain on the hand and also it is actually impossible to hit a finger pressure pad and the thumb pressure pad at the same time. Because of this I will have to go into a re-design.
