Popis: | Planet Bug is an educational game that teaches players about insects through a fun and interactive medium. Insect populations worldwide are declining, but little media coverage or publicity has highlighted this growing environmental concern [6]. Incorporating a unique gaming console and engaging graphics, Planet Bug tells a story that educates players on insect populations of the world, and how to take actions to protect them. Starting with a message from the future, the journey begins with an important mission to photograph insects from three different habitats (corresponding to three levels). Upon successful competition of the final level, the true message of the game will be displayed. |
