About this Project:
Our project is based on the Recycle the Runway challenge from Games for Change. Moreover, coming from a New York City resident, there is so much trash on the streets and subways and it is harmful to the environment while also unappealing to the eye. The purpose of our project is to teach kids to recycle, and not only that, teach them to recycle correctly. This is because there are different recycling bins to throw out different trash. For example, green is for bottles.

Feedback from the Judges:
I really like the UI/UX of your game. I did find a bug where if a user enters a level they've already cleared, they can't exit the app!
This presentation is super impressive! Your slides are very thorough and I appreciate that you shared your design process so we could see how the team thinks. The educational tidbit after the game is a clever touch - it's always important to let the user know what they should do with the information they learned. Overall a well-designed app that follows user experience principles and addresses an important topic for NYers. Great work!
You’ve made a really cool app! I love that you’ve shown your full design process, starting from your conceptual drawings all the way to a working demo — it’s very impressive. I wasn’t sure how to move the bin at first, so it might help to add some text at the beginning to let the user know to use the arrow keys. All in all, I think this is an innovative and fun game, and you did an awesome job.
