By random_guy
hidden green arrow

I’ll begin with this project: Illusion 1.
It seems crooked!

snapshot

I might make an illusion project :+1:

I’m looking forward to seeing it

In this project: illusion 2, the orange ball on the right looks smaller than the one on the left, but they are the same size!

Snapshot

This would be more interesting if you could glide the left half to over the right half so the user could see that they’re the same size, then glide them separate again. (Otherwise there’s little point in making it a Snap! project instead of just showing us the snapshot. ;~P)

Alternatively, draw the two orange dots, then wait a couple of seconds, then draw the cyan ones.

I can do this, good idea

When I saw this, I wondered how much the gradients in the colors affect the illusion, so I tried editing the costumes. The answer is that I still see the illusion without the gradients, but not as strongly:

Like what you said to @loucheman - why don’t you make a project where we can experiment and modify the two colours?

I updated the project !

Because I am a lazy man !

Cool! :~D

Just for you: a new version of illusion 1

Sorry - I got confused- I thought Brian had made it not you :slight_smile:

if you choose the same color for color1 and color2: the illusion still work (because of the gradient)!

examples

if we align big squares:

if we align small squares, it’s a better illusion :

In this project: illusion 3, purple segment length is the same as the green one

@cymplecy stepping feet project

I'm not sure if this counts but I've made this

Why not

I think it’s a illusion right
