DESENVOLVIMENTO DE UM JOGO EDUCACIONAL PARA DISSEMINAÇAO DO CERRADO

Abstract

In this work, the objective was to create an educational game in the ”infinity run” style with a strong national identity to highlight the importance of the cerrado. Initially, a Game Design Document (GDD) was created that details the essential elements of the game. Then, construction of the game and version testing began, including cultural elements from the cerrado in the story. The game presents a narrative about a boy who accidentally collides with a jaguar and ends up being chased by it through the savannah. The game environment is typical of the biome, with twisted trees, among other elements, and includes obstacles such as boards and logs that slow the player, bringing them closer to the jaguar. There are also some cashews that increase speed. The main purpose of the game is to enhance national culture, providing an educational approach by incorporating elements related to the Goi´as cerrado. Through the game, players learn about the Goi´as cerrado through informative cards
