At the beginning we discussed about how to reward our players. We had already decided on Economy Points and Money – so today we went into detail. Here are the results:

Economy Points

• are points which benefit the character
• you can get these points if you finished a challenge successfully
• Economy points are rare and hard to earn
• if the player has collected e.g. 100 points he gets the reward
• the character becomes stronger, quicker, better for example he/she gets a new weapon, a new attack, a new drunk, etc.
• there is also an extra level for assiduous collectors

Money

• with money the player can buy items – similar to the real world
• e.g. an apple to climb higher at the health level
• you can get these points if you finish a challenge successfully
• an other opportunity is to that grandma gives you money, or you earn it by doing several jobs,…

Next Level

• the player reaches the next level if she/he does well at the challenges
• he/she has to finish the final challenge – that is the only way through the level

We also discussed the Screen Design and the look of the “world”. Sarah and Lukas are going to work on it, so will we see examples soon.

Afterwards we split up and worked on our duties. Pia is responsible for the characters, Sarah for the interface and Lukas for the world. Lisa did some research in connection with the content.

What is our game?
It is a combination of a role play and an adventure game an deals with environmental problems. Children an Teenager (10 to 15 years) could develope and improve the world of environmental care.

What does the player control?
The player controls a character, which he can chose at the beginning.

Why is our game different?
Because it is real and fictional at the same time and the player has the opportunity to make the world a better place.

Today we enlarged our mindmap with the point "learning". At the picture you can see our achievements

The tidbit logo is now completed. We chose this, because the "db" looks like an ant and it works perfectly as a symbol for our company.

Here is the evolution of the logo:
