Inspiration

Our inspiration was the dramatic increase in technology use in the recent decade, especially in the younger generations. As shown in our presentation, 26% of kids were victims of scams, and 35% are targeted at least once a month.

What it does

PhishFinder helps kids recognize scams by giving them different scenarios in which they need to escape from.

How we built it

We built it using Lua code in Roblox Studio.

Challenges we ran into

Creating checkpoints. Originally, if you died at one of the later stages, you were reset to the first room. After watching some YouTube tutorials, we found a way to create checkpoints so you would respawn in the room you were last in.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of just finishing our project and working as a team.

What we learned

We learned that Roblox games are not easy to create, and a lot of thought goes into graphics. We also learned basic coding in Lua.

What's next for PhishFinder

If we were to continue this project, we would probably add more rooms to address more situations. We have 6 rooms right now.
