Green Kangaroo - Game Design Document [iPhone Game Programming]
Green Kangaroo is an iPhone game developed to illustrate the impact of people upon biodiversity, through reflecting their impact on a virtual kangaroo virtual pet. The objective of Green Kangaroo is to make players understand that their travel, consumption and eating habits have a direct impact upon Australia ecological and biological diversity. The game consists of two modes of game play. The first being a virtual pet state inspired by Aki Maita’’s “Tamagotchi” in which the player can interact with their pet through feeding it, giving their kangaroo boxing gloves and so on. The second mode is a quiz state where after a certain amount of time players will be asked questions to ascertain their impact on the environment.
The objective of the game overall is to keep your kangaroo alive through answering the right answers to the environmental questions. Even though people will often not have done the specified answers to keep their kangaroo alive, it will imply the changes needed to a person’’s lifestyle to maintain Australia’’s biological and ecological integrity.
The aim overall is to provide a meaningful, deceptively complex statement about the current Australian environmental degradation as a result of the typical Australian lifecycle. The experience of seeing the virtual pet die from a person’’s living habits will be quite a shock and hopefully force to consider their environmental impact.
