3D Balance Control Trainer

Manoeuvre a pizza slice-shaped object standing on a 45-degree rotated X/Y plane. The left controls move the pointed tip across the enlarged ground plane, while the right controls move the crust edge across X/Y as gravity pulls it down from Z toward the ground.

Score

Keep the pointed tip on the 45-degree rotated X/Y ground plane and stand the crust edge upward on Z. WASD moves the tip on the ground, while arrow keys move the crust edge across X/Y against slower gravity and random lean toward +/-X or +/-Y. Gamepads are supported: use the left stick for the tip and the right stick or D-pad for the crust edge.

Task model

The task is continuous rather than trial-limited. The slice is modelled as two connected controls: the pointed tip is constrained to the X/Y ground surface, and the crust edge moves across the vertical X/Z surface.

Candidate performance is scored by endpoint tracking error, time inside the target zones, crust alignment, and warning-zone excursions.
