STARFARI

STARFARI is a puzzle game based on Hubble imagery, to give the audience a view on the Universe and educate while advancing through levels.

THE CHALLENGE

On the Shoulders of Giants

Create a game using images from the Hubble Space Telescope as integral components!

We got Innovation Award (4th place) in NASA Space Apps Challenge 2018!!!

OUR SOLUTION

A dazzling puzzle!

We integrate Hubble’s images and videos into our puzzle game to popularize the findings of the HST.

  • Designed based on science!
  • Available on computers, mobiles, and tablets
  • Easy to play; free to choose levels
  • Science explained by every image

HOW TO PLAY THE GAME

  1. Solve puzzles of Hubble imagery
  2. Learn the science behind the image
  3. Advance through levels

WHY DID WE CHOOSE THIS TOPIC?

We care about science education. Most students around the world face competitive study which makes them hard to relax while learning. Our team is dedicated to achieve the balance between heavy academic tasks and mental health.

WHAT PROBLEMS DO WE SOLVE?

  • Motivate students to be interested in outer space.
  • Playing and learning at the same time.
  • Popularize the findings of Hubble.

WHAT TECHNOLOGIES DO WE USE?

STARFARI uses interactive web technology to present a jigsaw puzzle game with levels. A device (computer, phone, or tablet) capable of browsing web pages is required.
