Client Description:

FutureBites is an organization that hosts an event called Night of the Nerds annually, where they get kids from several schools to attend and discover their creativity through technology. Their main goal with these events is to inspire these kids to start doing creative stuff with the technology they learn about, and let them see what all is possible.

Description of the Assignment

Every edition of Night of the Nerds has a new theme, where they teach the kids attending about that theme. This year, that theme was global warming. We were tasked to make a fun and engaging game that teaches them about one of three aspect of climate change that they can improve on in their own lives. The three choices were meat consumption, long and/or frequent showering, and fast fashion – we were interested in all three, but we ended up choosing meat consumption.

You play the role of Alex, a sci-fi high school student in a debate club, and today the debate is about the impact of meat consumption on climate change. You start out with a couple pieces of evidence, which you can use to debunk the argument your opposition proposes, after which you gain more evidence to use against later arguments. Your goal is to convince your opposition.
