Young Rewired State 2011, Ipswich "Fluffy Data and Red Lasers!!!"

This is the software we made at Young Rewired State 2011, Ipswich @ Chantry Library, we hope you like our idea :)

The aim of the project was to take government open data and use it in a game, in this case "Space Data" where we are trying to find "Dave" the alien a new place to live, based on how happy the people are, if they like art or visit their local library.

The App was made using Processing.

Wow! This is a great project, I was curious about what the under-10s team might do - and never expected anything like this.
