Inspiration

We both are passionate about game development, and we both care about the environment and do not want to see it ruined.Therefore we created a game about restoring the environment back to what it used to be before things like climate change and pollution.

What it does

A simple game where you work towards restoring the plants in a forest while overcoming the deteriorating state of our earth.

How we built it

We built it using the Unity Game Engine, which uses C#.

Challenges we ran into

It was very challenging for us to come up with an idea, and we ran into several technical issues when building the game which required us to reevaluate how we were going to create it, but we managed to overcome these challenges and finish our project. One of us did not know Unity or C# so it took a bit of time to get up to speed.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of being able to submit a complete playable game within the given time limit. As this is our first hackathon we are glad we got to participate.

What we learned

We learned many things about game development and version control, and these skills will definitely be useful to us in the future.

What's next for Restoring in Solitude

We could make this game bigger and better by adding more features, and maybe one day release this game somewhere (e.g App Store). We could add more features such as events like acid rain and floods.
