Prompt 2: Describe something you really want to do, but can't.
One thing that I really want to do is to draw large pink flowers on the canvas, but the maximum of the brush size control on the upper right is not big enough for me to draw. I tried several times and I found out that the size control is only validate for the colorful brush, while it has no effects on two other brushes. In this game, three brushes represent three different kinds of functions. For the first brush, it simply draws a green line. And the limitation for the first brush is that I cannot change to other colors, though it might be too complex to list all the color options. The second brush contains more colors in it and it has more uncertainty, since the points will appear randomly in a range where the mouse is clicked. The third brush is my favorite, since it draws lovely flowers alone the line that my mouse clicks and the color pattern is more pink-related. When I clicked it, it also just draws a single flower with a white dot in the center. And I tried to draw a heart-like shape with the third brush and it looked surprisingly amazing. And I mentioned that I really want to increase the size of the brush and draw bigger flowers since it is easier to compose the drawing, but I cannot due to the limitation. Maybe it is because the author does not want me to have this function because it might destroy the lovely shape of the flower.
Prompt 2: Describe something you really want to do, but can't.
In Zoey Zhao's game "Vines and Flowers", there are three brushes. The first brush "green line" is a green line. The second brush "Colorful Brush" is a "spray" of multicolored circles where you can change the size of the circles with a function on the right of the screen. The third brush "pink flower" is a line of of white dots with pink "petals" surrounding the dots. If you press down your mouse for long enough and don't move it, a pink flower will appear. As the name "Vines and Flowers" suggests, you can create the look of pink flowers on a green vine by combining the brushes "green line" and "pink flower". After working with this game for a little bit, I wish that I was able to change the color of the flower. Working with the "Colorful Brush" brush with all the different colors shows me that there are other colors that can be made with this program that are constantly changing. I wonder if the programmer could take the randomizing coloring from the "Colorful Brush" and apply it to "pink flower" so that the flowers created are also multicolored. I also wish that I was able to change the size of the "pink flower brush" so that there are varying sizes of the flowers that I put on the "green line" vines that Zhao created. This would contribute to a more realistic creation of imitating life because not all flowers are uniform sized or pink. However, there is a beauty to having a uniform sized group of pink flowers. It is quite calming and not at all overwhelming which contributes a serene feeling when painting with the "green line" and "pink flower" brushes. So although I would like to add more features to the "pink flower" brush (size and color), I can see the merit that comes from having it stay as it is.
