The Challenge | Build a Planet

Your challenge is to create a game that will allow players to customize the characteristics of a star and design planets that could reasonably exist in that star system. Ensure that this game provides an educational experience for players!

HABIT IT?

HABIT IT? enables young people to educate themselves on how the solar system works as it would inspire them to appreciate the delicacy of the planets and how we could preserve them.

As a team we didn't have a lot of coding experience so we focused on problem solving. We decided to take an approach where we inspire young people to be more interested in space. Using Marvel, we created a prototype of our game which allows you to create a solar system based on real data to educate young people. This causes teens to reflect and appreciate the delicacy of the Earth and do more to preserve it .


We used data on planet composition from NASA to create a database. in the future we recognise that our product could possibly be declined in the market life cycle so we will introduce new features to prompt growths eg. future machine learning.
