About the Project
This project is just a simple application of the concept of multipoint. It is basically about a very short and simple game that can be played by two players which is specially aimed for the kids. In this game there are altogether five rounds where the difficulty slightly increases after each round. In each round a picture is given at the top and below it other four similar pictures are given. Out of those four similar pictures the player need to find, one of the exactly same picture as the one given on the top. In order to select the correct picture the multipoint buttons are placed below each of the four options. If the option is correct then the button displays as “Correct” after the click and if the option is not correct nothing displays and the same participant is not allowed to click again at that round. After the clicking is done by each of the participants there is another button in order to go to the next round and on clicking that the players enter the next round. Finally, when all of the rounds are completed the players can enter the score board where the score of the each participant is displayed and thus the winner is selected.
Scope
This project is basically designed for the purpose of entertainment. It is mainly aimed for the kids. It is made up of colorful pages, attractive pictures, interesting music and the learning stuffs as well. There is not just the fun part in this game but some hidden learning mechanism as well. Here the kids can learn to figure out the differences between the similar looking objects which will help to increase their concentration power. On the top of all those things two kids can play at the same time sharing the same monitor by using two different mice with the concept of multipoint.
Features The main feature of the project is that it is executed on a full screen and thus the multipoint mice can be used all over the screen. There are different pages for different rounds and each page is full of colorful designs and attractive pictures. On the execution of each page different types of music can be heard that are related to the pictures. Each of the players are given separate mice pointers each of different colors so that there would not be any confusion while playing. Here once a player clicks on the available options he is not further allowed to click and thus it maintains the fair play. Also, as soon as the player clicks the correct option his score is automatically increased in the scoreboard.

Limitations
The limitation of this project is that for each round the player need to go to the different pages by clicking a multipoint button manually. There is no option to go back to the previous page but there is only the option to go to the next page. The game is only limited to the two players in order to minimize the confusion. There are only five rounds and the game is too short as well as simple. There are not any complex issues to deal about and anyone can get easily access this game without any hassle.
Further Enhancement
This game (project) is very simple and easy to play; it can be further enhanced with much more additional features. As, mentioned above this game is only limited to two players, so the number of players can be increased with the simple change in the available code itself. Here, there are only five rounds and all of them are very simple, so some really interesting and complex rounds can be inserted so that all age group people can get the fun out of it. Also, the graphics and the sound coordination of the project can be improved along with the limited time frame. It can be used as some part of the game in teaching small kids by getting them the access to the computer rather than letting them learn manually through books. In this particular project more interesting facts and pictures can be inserted so that the children would be much more interested learn along with having fun.
Conclusion
Find the Twin is a multipoint project that uses the concept of multipoint. It allows two people to access the same monitor at the same time using two different mice. In this project there is not much use of the complex codes but just the use of multipoint concept and its simple, user friendly application is made. Although, it is a very short and simple game it consists of different colorful pages, interesting pictures along with the related music. Thus, it is a simple yet a complete package, especially for the entertainment of kids.
