Sigma Hacks 2020

HPF is a multi-layer software that combines gamification and the Pomodoro Technique to make productivity fun. The pomodoro technique suggests a period of 25 minutes working followed by a 5 minute break, a process that is automatically implemented by HPF.
Here's the game:
You are among one of the first humans to be living on Mars! However, this life of adventure comes with its own struggles. Your mission on Mars involves growing a garden and gathering samples while also keeping yourself healthy. How does it work? Well, it's simple:
- During the 5 minute break, you will play a mini-game. The goal of the game is to catch as many of the moving samples as possible before the five minutes run out! Doing so helps you gain EXP (experience points) that you need to reach the next level. However, this is hard labor, and it drains you health.
- You can regain lost health by focusing during the 25 minute work period.
- Everytime you reach a new level, you will grow one new fruit!

HPF was made through a combination of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. For this software, I took advantage of the p5.js library (link) and the p5.collide2D library (link).
- README.md - This file!
- index.html - Html page base structure.
- sketch.js - Main code goes here.
- style.css - CSS styles for the page.
- game-1.js - the minigame (completely separate from the one in sketch.js)
- p5.collide2d.min - a p5js library
- p5.min - p5js
