Project Planet

Overview

The game ProjectPlanet addresses key areas of sustainable action that hold both high societal relevance and significant importance for the daily lives of young people and young adults. These include sustainable agriculture, alternative energy, plastics and recycling, as well as luxury and consumption. Throughout the game, players are repeatedly faced with so-called dilemma decisions. Such dilemmas are particularly valuable from an educational perspective because they do not allow for simple, clear-cut solutions, thereby encouraging multi-perspective and reflective thinking. The target audience for the game includes students from the 7th grade onward as well as young adults. It was developed by the Didactics of Natural Sciences at the University of Bamberg in cooperation with the renowned game developer upjers GmbH from Bamberg, as well as with five different schools from the surrounding area.

What I did

Contribution

Ingame Assets

I designed stunning 3D assets and 2D in-game visuals to design and decorate the game’s environment. Even parts of the original level were created by me. The main challenge was standing out in the fierce mobile game market while preserving the game’s unique art style. I also created the logo and app icon.

UI/UX Design

 I crafted intuitive UI/UX for our game on the base our styleguide. Through user feedback design, user testing, and test evaluation, I ensured every interaction felt natural, accessible, and engaging prioritizing player needs at every step. I also had to meet edcuational and scientific standarts.
