Games for a STEM Television Series on TVO
Challenge: Create an HTML5 game for a cool, retro-looking science series on TVOKids for a modest budget but with deep gameplay.
Solution: More curriculum games! In this case, the challenge was a broad one: use exploration to help kids invent solutions to problems. Without creating a huge physics engine, we wanted to make a funny, fun game that challenged kids to try something, possibly fail, and try again. Essentially, the game replicates the scientific method…but with jet packs.
Result: Working with the TV team, we made game versions of the main characters, and created a multi-level challenging game that increased in difficulty while being super fun to play!
