Inspiration:

Covid-19 or novel coronavirus curriculum resources and videos for schools

What it does:

A visual novel to inform kids about Covid-19 and how to avoid it. It rides on the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure gameplay mechanism to tell the story and engage young children.

How I built it:

I used Ren'py which is a visual novel engine that applies some Python Programming

Challenges:

I had a bit of difficulty doing some design and looking for non-copyrighted media files

Used by educators in Singapore and also by parents who shared with their children

What I learned:

Information needs to be packaged nicely to engage young learners
