PROGRESS
Final week to work on the app development and it began with addition of new Basic level quests. Also the user can now switch between basic and advanced mode by toggling the options in settings. While choosing to explore without quests is still an option. UI for the same was made  and added in the app. The interactive tutorial last time had minor bugs which now has been fixed. The addition of whale, octopus and eel now completes are 14 creature list as decided. The boga fish is now seen shoaling in the environment as a visual treat to the users. Only fun fact interaction is allowed with boga fish. The octopus camouflages and the whale is magnificent as it should be. The terrain has edges have been smoothed and a slope is provided so that the user is not able to see the end of the world. We now have a new main menu screen with a brand new logo of “Hello Ocean”. A credits page has been created as well. The optimization of the whole app was done to make it work on various devices.

The app is now complete and ready to be handed off to our client. The team is happy and equally proud of their hard work finally to have come to a good end. We hope to have achieved the goal of motivating students about the underwater biome with our Hello Ocean experience.

The Imagica website has been updated with the teacher resource page which has all the quests, fun facts, fish list and map of the terrain. It also has gallery management steps and guide to troubleshoot the app.
