About the experience
Rising Pixel wanted to do some experimentation between client projects. For that we created small teams to foment communication inside the day-job, to do experimentation and to have fun. In this way, the main objective for the Game Jam was to create a game that educates, addresses or celebrates mental health. The main theme idea was:
- Demonstrate how video game themes and mechanics can be utilized as treatment mechanisms.
- Help dispel misconceptions and social stigma related to openly discussing and addressing mental health issues.
- Make it fun! Maximize entertainment to make your game engaging and playable.
We created 4 different teams, so we created 4 games. You can take a look and test the games here:
