Pollution Clicker

H2 Inspiration

Cookie Clicker, Extra Credits

H2 What it does

Demonstrates the urgency of pollution

H2 How we built it

Written in python using pygame

H2 Challenges we ran into

We had major technical issues getting it into an executable, and we were learning how to use pygame as we went, and we had a lot of problems with GitHub overwriting files

H2 Accomplishments we’re proud of

List counting generators in the top left, the mouse turns to a hand when it hovers over clickable items, and the way the music turned out

H2 What we learned

We’re much more acquainted with how GitHub works, as well as pygame, and we now know a little bit more about executables

H2 What’s next for Pollution Clicke

As Extra Credits once said, every system in a game, every action the player can and can’t take, is a message to the player. There is so much deep meaning that can be put into video games that we have only just scratched the surface of. Games can make us laugh, make us cry, and most importantly in this case, make us understand. So many in the world do not understand the weight of pollution on the earth, and because of that very little is being done. Using interactive experiences, we can help those to better see the world around them.
