High-Level Project Summary

In our project (mega sun) we are developing a game that consists of 5 levels and a gallery which contains extra information to those who exists in the levels, the game is based on the idea of solar parker`s probe to help the player to understand and be aware of all the information that belongs to parker`s solar probe .our challenge is to help people understand the idea of parker`s solar probe and it`s the aim of the game and it`s mission level by level so, this game is very important as it will help many people to understand and know more about the probe and it`s structure and mission and make it easier to many people.

Detailed Project Description

Our project is a game called mega sun consists of five levels and a gallery every one of them is talking about a specific part of parker’s solar probe’s structure, mission and its journey to the sun to make the player get the idea easier. The first level is a maze and the player and to solve it you have to collect the parts of the probe and know their names and functions, the second level is based on what happens after collecting the parts of the probe as the probe begins to launch and faces a lot of asteroids in the way, just to make the game more interesting. In level three we began to highlight the idea of decreasing the size of the orbits as the player get nearer to the sun, the fourth level is responsible for explaining the idea of cooling system in the probe by presenting the function of it to the player and let him choose to activate it or not, and finally the fifth level is considered as a revision to all the previous levels, also we have the gallery to present extra information about the probe. It`s expected to make it easier

Hackathon Journey

It was so helpful and important experience that helped us a lot in knowing new information and get more knowledge about different things, also we get great skills as team work and working under pressure also we learned to work on different programs as game maker and illustrator, we worked on the challenge (the way to the sun)because we were interested in developing games and we found that it will be easy to u to help the players know more about the challenge, our aim from this project is to make it easy to learn more things by playing games,
