Our project, Inti's Legacy, is a mobile game designed to work offline, making it accessible to everyone. The game's name is inspired by Inti, the Incan sun god, and is set in a modern, polluted world with rich connections to ancient Peruvian cultures. Players take on the role of a school child chosen by Inti, who must complete a series of missions to restore balance to the world, guided by a special map.

Key Features:

1. Virtual Dynamic World:
A space for players to learn through missions based on the GLOBE Protocols. These protocols are introduced in various engaging ways through mini-missions that gradually reveal the storyline and offer rewards.

Missions: Inspired by the main GLOBE Protocols, all missions follow the scientific method and teach players how to explore environmental topics.
Tools & Objects: Players use tools and objects directly related to those described in the GLOBE Protocols.
Rewards: The game's lore features four elemental necklaces, each symbolizing a GLOBE Protocol category: Atmosphere, Hydrosphere, Pedosphere, and Biosphere. Completing missions allows players to collect these necklaces.

2. Real-World Mission System:
Players can log in as an admin, allowing them to assign special real-world missions for rewards, such as unique skins, extra levels, and more. This encourages players to apply their in-game learning to real-world activities. The system is managed through a password database, where admins (who request access through the website) can generate and distribute passwords to participants.

The game is set to launch in two months, and we’ve already received an enthusiastic response. In just the first 24 hours of conducting our polls, we reached 50 registrations, and the numbers continue to grow.

The game is primarily developed using Unity, with much of the design enhanced through the use of ChatGPT and DALL-E, ensuring a rich and engaging player experience.

Inti's Legacy aims to combine education and adventure, creating a unique experience where players not only enjoy a compelling story but also learn about environmental science and conservation in a fun, interactive way.
