The employees of the Insel Gruppe are to be sensitized to the topic of littering through a game.
We developed the game with the open source framework Phaser.io, which already provides us with basic game physics on which we can build the game. An additional advantage: As a browser game, the game does not have to be installed and can be played directly. However, there are new hurdles: There are countless browsers and their functionality differs in various factors in each case. For example, it is not possible to switch to full-screen mode in the mobile Safari browser.
After conception and design, we implemented the campaign website quickly using Twig and the usual front-end techniques. With the integration of the game, we ultimately also had to ensure that employees of the Insel Group could participate with their user account and win prizes.
The challenges in this project:
👉 Conception and development of a browser game
👉 Browser compatibility
👉 A leaderboard to save the achieved score
