Do you have a great serious game concept? Looking for a reason to build it? How about world-wide renown and a pile of money - is that reason enough? OK - I'm stretching it a bit, but this is a great chance for students and professionals to try their hands at designing and developing a serious game. Prizes will be awarded!
Whosegame, an alpha version from Orange (a French? developer), intends to be a portal for serious games built in Flash. In this early stage of the portal's life, a serious game design contest is being conducted at the site.
According to the site, "[y]ou can submit as many serious games as you want on the following topics:
- improve your knowledge in the telecommunications field
- be an eco-citizen with the help of telecommunications
- acting against isolation and exclusion thanks to telecommunications"
They even give you some examples to get your imagination going.
C'mon now - you have 3 months. Any professors out there looking for a class project?...
I'm serious,
Anne
Hello
