Guide The Narwhal

Guide the Narwhal is a game whose goal is to use a playful theme to teach some basic facts about condom use and safe sex. The player must help the narwhals put jellyfish covers on their horns, before going into the undersea temple to play. While in the temple, the narwhal collects coins and treasures, until the jellyfish is filled and begins to fall off. The player needs to guide the narwhal out of the temple before this happens; if the jellyfish falls off while in the temple, the game is over. The player can put another jellyfish on the narwhal horn, and return to the temple to collect treasures.

This game was developed by Daniel Cazan (Georgia Tech MS CS student) in the Qualcomm Augmented Reality Game Studio at Georgia Tech (‪http://www.argamestudio.org‬). This Qualcomm-funded research studio is a collaborative effort between the Augmented Environments Lab at Georgia Tech, and the Interactive Design and Game Development program at Savannah College of Art and Design. The Studio is led by Blair MacIntyre (GT) and Tony Tseng (SCAD).

This game was built for Android phones, using Unity3D and the Qualcomm AR SDK plugin (‪http://ar.qualcomm.com/‬).
