The Challenge | 1UP for NASA Earth
Your challenge is to create a new video game that uses NASA Earth data, providing players a novel way to interact and have fun with NASA Earth data. What you create can inform, educate, inspire, or simply provide an enjoyable experience for players – the Earth is your stage!
Global Puzzles
We are creating a lineup of interactive video games which use NASA’s satellite imagery of the earth focusing on ecosystem threatening issues and making the youth more aware of the environment.
We have built a prototype game which is a classic jigsaw puzzle with interesting facts and prevention methods consisting of a wide variety of pictures taken from the NASA satellites about the soil temperature of the Earth. We did this using the Unity engine and we're planning on creating even more games tackling other relevant world problems such as trash in the ocean, wildfires and space debris.
All of the data used about the global warming threats are taken from the official NASA website.
