TuxMath Factoroids - replace Tux's console with cockpit image

completed by: Johndhel Maceda

mentors: David Bruce

Currently in Factoroids, Tux is visible at the bottom of the screen at his desk from the regular TuxMath game.  To make this fit better with the Factoroids game, we need to replace this image with something that looks more like Tux seated in the ship's cockpit.

Also, the number to be "shot" will no longer be freely determined - it will be limited to 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, or 13.  So we don't necessarily need the LED screen anymore - we could have a row of buttons in front of Tux with the current selection highlighted.  When the player chooses a new "prime gun", Tux perhaps could push that button.

 

(I am posting a related task to change the actual gameplay from "number entry" to "toggle between available prime guns".  This task is just for the Tux cockpit animations)
