Inspiration

There is plenty of information regarding the pandemic that many people need to hear, but it has a hard time getting through because people are tired of hearing about the pandemic. Each level provides a piece of information on Covid-19 and implements it into the gameplay. By using Unity we were able to successfully create our first alpha. Certain challenges we ran into was adapting to the unity software and familiarizing ourselves with the tools and program within 24 hours.

What it does

Corona Fighters is a fun 2D platformer that uses a video game as a medium for delivering educational content in an engaging way. Players will embark on a quest to obtain valuable vaccines, and learn many essential facts about staying healthy during the pandemic along the way.

How we built it

The game was made in Unity 2D with C# scripts. Using the built in source-control collaboration systems of unity, we were able to distribute the work among the team efficiently.

Challenges we ran into

Unity is a beast of a software, and as a team made entirely of game development novices, it took a lot of time to learn the ropes and get the project up and running.
