Pimple Poppers

Grades 8-12. Antibiotic resistance, natural selection, and experiment design are folded into a narrative about helping a young woman with an infection that her antibiotic isn’t effectively treating.

For this game, I was the Art Director and Narrative Designer. This game uses an interactive 3D environment and interactive 2D “design space” to introduce students to concepts and practices around experiment design in a lab setting. We designed “Axl’s Wet Lab” in order to create a fun, bright, thematic location wherein the student could learn about genetics and adaptability in order to effectively test and prescribe treatment for an antibiotic-resistant infection.
