YOG Environment Challenge Game featured at NEA Event

The "Singapore 2010 Environment Challenge" Facebook game, a NYP/SEG(E)- SYOGOC collaboration project, was featured during the "Official Launch of the New Anti-Littering Campaign", by National Environment Agency (NEA) on 6 June 2010 at Plaza Singapura.

Students from DMIT were there to support the event and explain the game to the Guest-of-Honour, Dr Yaacob Ibrahim, Minister for the Environment and Water Resources, other VIPs and the members of the public.

This game enables players to grow fruit-bearing trees by supplying “nutrients” such as Water, Sun and Fertilizer. To earn these nutrients, players have to answer environmental related questions correctly to earn them.

By applying knowledge acquired throughout the 3 years of studies in DMIT and sheer hard work, the several batches of students involved in the game development have emerged successful in their efforts.

Encouragement from mentors have really boosted students’ moral and played a significant part of their success in many ways. Although some hiccups were encountered, guidance and encouragement helped to improve the game to what it is now.

“We have learned designing, animation in DMIT in the first two years. This helped us to create this game”, commented one of the student. He added, “As an innovative polytechnic, we are also asked to explore our own limits with knowledge being acquired outside our field of study. For example, we had to learn the less familiar FaceBook Markup Language or FBML.”

“It has been a daunting task yet an interesting one for all of us. We learnt something new in the process. In conclusion, it has been a great experience and knowledge gained. I can also say it has been a great start for something new."
