Inspiration
We were inspired by the Google web game Interland
What it does
It's a game were players earn coins by identifying traits of phishing emails: we will educate them about these traits.
How we built it
We used Python, and it is currently ran in the python counsel
Challenges we ran into
Both of us only know the language python, so we were unable to create an actual game
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are very proud that we could possibly make a change in internet safety from just a small and simple few lines of code, by teaching and educating individuals and making them aware of the threat posed by the web and internet.
What we learned
While researching for the project, we actually learned a lot about phishing emails that we didn't know.
What's next for Phishy Emails
We will try to make it into an actual game, as well as providing colorful graphics and more features for our characters! We would also like to find a more meaningful and accomplishing way to use/spend coins. We will be sure to update the game as more traits of phishing emails are popularized and become more common.
