A video game where players use body movements to offset the gradual increase in global warming.
Only a Video Game? It is a video game that explores the urgency of the environmental crisis through physical movement, entangled in the story of a flower facing an increasingly hot atmosphere, while racing toward net-zero. The experience mission is to contemplate how our actions change the environment around us.
Can you get to carbon zero before reaching two degrees Celsius?
Instructions to save the planet: Do as many successful movements as possible; the time is running out. Make sure the temperature does not rise above two degrees Celsius. All the movements you make will slow the warming.
Created as part of the BeFantastic Within AI+Arts Fellowship, a collaboration with BeFantastic (India) and FutureEverything (UK), and supported by the British Council’s India Together UK Season of Culture.
