High-Level Project Summary
Space Glow is a game was developed to teach people about stellar variability.In this game, user will learn about stellar variability by playing, for this we will use information extracted from NASA database.teach why the stars change and show how the night sky is dynamic.when advancing in the game's phases, the player will receive a note informing his level of knowledge about stellar variability.

Detailed Project Description
our project is a game to aid learning about stellar variability.
When starting the game, the player will be guided by an instructor to solve the challenges proposed in each stage.
by gamifying knowledge the player can learn about stellar variability by playing.

data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope helped in the theoretical framework of star variations for game development. And the GCVS - General Catalog of Variable Stars (June 2022 version) also helped a lot in the identification of variable contelações.
Hackathon Journey
very inspiring, a unique experience. we learn how dynamic the night sky is, something we didn't imagine.
because in our view the stars has always fascinated us.
our approach took place through the construction of a game, and the problems arose were solved with much dialogue and research.
