Moonbo's Other Game

[Moonbo]

Hey All,

 

So after putting together two gritty Dark Mod missions...here's something completely different:

 

 

Yep, I've made an edutainment game (trailer courtesy of our very own Goldwell). I don't know if anyone around here is interested in more lighter fare games, but you're my community so I wanted to share.

 

Here's the game's website and you can buy from Itch.io if you are so inclined :-).

Pretty neat. Its a lovely thing, a game for children. Must have been a treat to create, conceptualise.

 

Its funny, even though i was considered a smart kid, I never really played many educational games. In fact, I was terrible at anything puzzle like, tetris, math games, I was the worst. Only games that I was big into were open ended games, basicly rpgs, but also adventure-type games, those used to make my imagination fly. And I loved action books, the ones you choose where to go next. You could do a lot of great things in that format, I always thought I would writte one one day. Maybe I should look into that.

 

Good luck with your creations!

Glad you're one of those people who have an interest in developing games like this. From the trailer, it looks quite neat.

 

I hope this will get a good reception from the target audience and they'll find it fun enough as a learning accessory. Children can be actually quite demanding and choosy when it comes to edutainment quality. But that's part of what I admire about them: They won't be fooled by an adult's notions of "good enough" and will usually wear their hearts on their sleeves.

 

Good luck with this, it seems to be shaping up nicely.

@RPGista, thanks for the kind words. I too enjoyed "Choose your own Adventure" books as a kid, and I'd definitely buy one if you wrote it ;-).

 

@Petike, thank you! Surprisingly the market for edutainment games is smaller than you'd think (and very fragmented) so I guess we'll see what happens.

"Doctor? Yes, hello, there's something awfully wrong with my what up dawg.

 

"I'm sorry what?"

 

"My what up dawg."

 

"What up dawg" is not a body part."

 

"It isn't?"

 

"No, I'm printing you a month's prescription of Adlib Adventures."

[Moonbo]

. Sounds like the perfect prescription!
