Eco Pet is a project made for the Master in Serious Games of the University of Skövde that encourage students to adopt an eco-friendly energy consumption life-style.
In the game you have an ecopet, that the player has to take care of, both by playing the game and saving energy in real world. To motivate and encourage discussion about energy consumption, the pet’s environment is affected by all players energy consumption. The more energy you consume, the more clouds pollute the sky!
The main challenges we are facing are to make the players care about their pet, to make them understand the connection between the game and their real electricity consumption to balance the in-game reward/penalty with the player’s energy savings in real world and, of course, to wrap it all in an entertaining experience!
Do you like what you see? Then, don’t forget to check our website https://ecopetgame.wordpress.com/
If you want to play the game online with your desktop PC, go to http://carlosgonzalez.itch.io/eco-pet
Your feedback is precious, you would help us a lot by answering our questionnaire: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1QvVFYxP2Uj08bHSqKgw4oMIezRxnWCyFsSOPh2Mf_OM/viewform?c=0&w=1&usp=mail_form_link
