Exercise – creating a procedural Jenga tower

To master our skill of the Spreadsheet editor and the Duplicate Elements node, let’s create a procedural Jenga tower!

Sketching the idea

To achieve this, we’ll have to go through four steps:

1. Creating the base: We’ll start this project by duplicating three blocks sized to the dimensions of Jenga blocks.
2. Duplicating and rotating the base: After that, we’ll make sure we rotate these three blocks 90 degrees and duplicate them to make the full tower.
3. Removing blocks: The next step is to delete some blocks as if it’s a played Jenga game. This is to add randomization to the tower.
4. Adding randomization to the blocks: We can add even more randomization by randomizing the Z rotation axis of each of the instances!

Now that we have a rough idea of what we will do in this exercise, let’s get right into it!
