Inspired by the Magic Mirror Digital puppet I've been using for years on Halloween, I decided to create a "Boo" puppet for my 2015 Super Mario Halloween theme.  This is the digital puppet version, where a combination of PHP and jquery is used to bind keystrokes to JavaScript animations. 

Boo can look in all directions, change expressions, has mouth control, and can even change outfits.  All in all a fun and successful project that I will build on in the future.

All images and sounds are copyright of their respective owners, I claim no ownership of any creative materials used in this fan project, it was just for fun!
