| A whale of a game for World Wildlife Fund A computer game based on the antics of a whale could soon be making waves in a major environmental campaign. Second-year students on the computer arts degree course at the University of Abertay Dundee competed to design a prototype game to help World Wildlife Fund promote the Scotland's Global Footprint campaign. Forty-five students on the course submitted game ideas for assessment and shortlisting by professional games designer Stewart Graham of Denki Software and Barbara Stratton of WWF. The students then split into 10 teams to develop the 10 shortlisted games to prototype stage. The winning project, Minke the Whale, designed by Ben Edwards, Colin Clark and George Denoon, is a game that shows how simple household activities can have an impact on the global environment. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Game News :: home page |
