WANDERERS
WANDERERS allows you to observe the life of little wanderers bustling about through their daily activities. If you so choose, you can also thoroughly disrupt them trough your interactions, much to the surprise of those little creatures. This application shows a glimpse to two chapters of their endearing world.

Instructions
You can try the application yourself. Clone or download this repository to an OSX machine and run by double-clicking the application file at /bin/wanderers-release.app.
While the app is running, clicking with the mouse/touchpad spawns targets that wanderers are attracted to. Scene can be switched by pressing any key on the keyboard.
Info
WANDERERS is the final project for the Aalto University course 'DOM-E5106 Generative Media Coding' by Emil Lindfors (yours truly). It was made in Spring 2020. The following technologies were used to create it: C++ and OpenFrameworks (v0.11.0).
Wanderers utilizes an OpenFrameworks addon called ofxPlayground, which I wrote during the course. It provides scene switching and drawing functions. The addon version compatible with Wanderers is stored in local_addons to minimize chance of future breakage. If the addon gets developed further in the future, releases will be published in: https://github.com/emllnd/ofxplayground
