Inspiration

I made this project with the aim of making the future better. It's important to educate children on sustainable energy sources and the impact they have on the environment. Interactive simulations are a great way to help children visualize and understand complex concepts. This game will surely help the next generation more about sustainable energy sources.

What it does

This is a card swipe game in which the children playing it typically swipe cards to match them with corresponding categories or definitions. So, in my game, the cards are related to different types of energy sources like renewable and non- renewable. The children gets the information that which energy source will be beneficial in the future.

How we built it

As a high school student interested in computer science and game development, I made this game alone using Unity Game Engine and using C# coding language for programming the game and photoshop for the pictures in the game.

Challenges we ran into

The challenges I ran into while developing the project were mainly the time limit and lack of resources. I still have an old laptop for game development which is lags a lot at times and I had to deal with a lot of crashes during the development. Time was another side of the same coin where I had no experience of a hackathon but I had to make a project in just 36 hours.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I am definitely proud of completing my first hackathon and I have a long way to go. Moreover, I am proud of creating a game that promotes sustainability and educates children on the importance of renewable energy sources. By using interactive simulations and a card swipe game, I've found creative ways to make the learning process engaging and fun for children. This is a great contribution towards a more sustainable future, and it has the potential to make a positive impact on children's understanding and behavior towards energy sources.

What we learned

In this process, I have learned about the importance of promoting sustainability and the impact that renewable energy sources can have on the environment and it has helped me to gain the knowledge to create more educational games in the future. Working continuously for a day in Unity Game Engine helped me learn about the interface of the Engine better and helped me gain a lot of skills in C#.

What's next for Project Utopia

Even if Project Utopia doesn't win, it will be published on Google Play Store and will continue to help millions of children to gain knowledge and make a positive impact on children's understanding and behavior towards energy sources.
