Zephyr
Spring 2015
Team Zephyr is a semester long project at the Entertainment Technology Center, and we are developing a live outdoor game experience to be played at the Games for Change Festival being held in New York City in April 2015. Games for Change is a movement and community of practice dedicated to catalyzing social impact through the digital games. We were challenged to develop a live game with a digital component that allows players to understand and engage with a real-world global issue. Our team has decided to tackle in bringing awareness to something that has a major part in many global issues: Over Population. The goal of our game is to help players understand the complexities of overpopulation through a field game of territory claims and culture growth, ultimately motivating them to work together in global cooperation to reach a sustainable outcome.
