There are two different versions available to download, one is a science fiction setting and one is fantasy setting.

؜What is unique is that these are both played on the same server but are allow users to see the game differently.

؜sci-fi

what is the gameplay like?

؜SATSUM is a first person team shooter. Each team has a certain number of tickets at the start of the game. To win, you capture spe​cific points on the map, which causes tickets to bleed from the other team's ticket pool. If the other team runs out of tickets, they lose.

what is the game about?

shoot people with ✨magic✨ and ✨wonder✨

Each frontend has five classes, each with three subclasses. Each is paired with an equivalent in the other frontend.

For example, in Sufficiently Advanced Technology (Sci-Fi), Infantry correlates to Sufficiently Understood Magic's Monk (Fantasy).

Project Statement

؜A material study using silicone cast pieces and 3d printed molds, to create a realistic puppet for a practical effect purposes. This will include a catalogue detailing the process and techniques used for future students.

Why

؜I am very passionate when it comes to practical effects and puppetry. While this project is motivated by my passion, its also motivated by wanting to make this process and these materials more approachable to the students at NuVu.

The Rancor from star wars is an excellent showcase of practical effects and puppetry, all of you should know it and seen it in action, its a great example for puppetry and casting.

Teeper is a puppet created by Adam Dougherty and Kreature Kid studio. They extensively detail their process. This precedent will help me with the actual fabrication aspect of the project.

؜ I mentioned the selection of a character before. The reason for this is that this OI about puppetry and casting not about character design an creation. I really enjoy halo, seemed like a fun character to re-create.

؜Our Story

؜The inspiration for this project was a personal story, written as a part or the Local Agents of Change studio. Something that has heavily impacted my personal community both physically and emotionally is cancer. Many of my friends and family have had cancer, are currently battling it, or have passed way due to it. It's a disease that affects many people and can make people feel like they can't do anything to help.

؜Our Goal

The problem we are trying to address is the urgent need for funding for cancer research. We are taking action not only to raise money, but also to bring awareness and hope to a disease that can make people feel helpless. Our goal is to plan and host a charity gala to raise money for cancer research, and the proceeds will go directly to Mass General Hospital.

Project Statement

؜My project A Tea Set To Remember is a recreation of a tea set gifted to me after my best friend at a young age passed from cancer, I still have the set and cherish every piece.

Why

؜I picked my project because Jamy and I were very close and I was one of her only friends. I want not only to honor her but for people to know her and remember her in all her wonder and beauty. I also want younger girls that are in the same boat as Jamy was to know they are seen and even though they might not have known Jamy personally that they aren't alone.

3) make the mold and cast them

4) glaze the pieces to make them look like dresses/ more royal tea set

Next Steps

Project Statement

؜As a group, we're demonstrating upcycling and how it serves as a solution to environmental damage and struggles regarding personal style. Through the rise of fast fashion, yearly, 100 million tons of clothes are placed into landfills, causing unnecessary pollution. And with the process of upcycling, we will highlight how it provides a sustainable solution by transforming old clothes and fabrics into new, valuable items.

Why

؜In present day, us teenagers have difficulty finding personal style and usually fall for the quick solution fast fashion provides. And although youth partake in a huge role regarding environmental activism, we hope to provide them with even more ways to help. And as teenagers ourselves, our project is meant to show how actively caring for the environment through upcycling and developing ur own personal style can co - exist.

؜IDENTITY MAP

؜Before starting this process, it's important to have an understanding of what about your identity you find most important, memorable, or exciting. An identity map is meant to help you with that process and determine what exactly you wish to pinpoint and convey through the piece you'll create.

This image is an example of a identity map about me, Meliah. I write most known and obvious parts of me and from there, I get more detailed with memories and aspirations of mine.

1. From my map, Meliah made a decision that she wanted vibrant sort of colors on the clothing she would end up creating

؜MOODBOARD

؜Ideas of design choices we will use to create our own pieces

؜FABRICS

؜Carroll School

؜When I was in third grade, I was diagnosed with dyslexia. After that, I went to Carroll School, which is a school for dyslexic kids, from fourth grade all the way to eighth grade

My time at Carroll allowed me to learn with my dyslexia and grow as a student through a community that understood my brain

؜My Story

؜When I was applying to high school, I experienced assumption. My interviewer's son had dyslexia, and because he struggled, my interviewer believed I would too.

This made me want to help people understand that a person's experience with dyslexia can be entirely different from the person sitting next to them

Project Statement

Play-do is an inclusive playscape designed for individuals with sensory processing disorders, autism, and similar conditions. It features four rooms focused on tactile sensory therapy, providing even pressure along the body for soothing. Additionally, there's a playground accessible via climbing nets or stairs. While these spaces are made with the needs of sensory sensitive or under sensitive people in mind, it is a free and collaborative space that welcomes everyone, fostering play without stigma and encouraging consideration of each other's needs.

"Why?"

• Playgrounds are loud
• Playgrounds lack accommodations for sensory sensitive individuals
• Playgrounds lack a space to calm down if an individual is battling a sensory overload
• Playgrounds lack spaces for individual play

User Persona

Broad problem being addressed

• Sensory overload
• Classroom setting

Users interests

• Free play, Cats
• Horror
• Fantasy/Anime
• Rhythmic music (drums and bass)
• Fluffy and warm objects bring comfort to them.

Sensory Triggers

• Excessive writing by hand
• Bright lights
• Being forced to remain in order
• Not allowed to fidget in order to release anxiety

How does the user currently solve the problem

• By taking breaks and using the restroom, and sometimes using the designated neurodivergent space in their school

Name: Krysto; Age: 7

What is the problem with the way the problem is currently being solved:

The neurodivergent space often had a stigma associated with it which made the student feel as an outcast, The bathroom isn't the most comfortable space to soothe oneself

Product Goals

• It should be open and free to all students not just neurodivergent students and provide a space and comfortable space to everyone.

• We could use colours to designate which space is for quite space and which is for collaborative play Incorporate users interests in the product to further soothe them.

• Good lighting
• Prioritise comfort and coziness

Reviewing Product Goals

• It should be open and free to all students not just neurodivergent students and provide a space and comfortable space to everyone.

• We could use colours to designate which space is for quite space and which is for collaborative play Incorporate users interests in the product to further soothe them.

• Good lighting
• Prioritise comfort and coziness

• The rooms will have paned or translucent glasses to allow for natural light to illuminate the room
• The rooms create space for comfort and privacy

• The entire structure is very customisable outside the doors they could be set as individual or collaborative play by the user
• The top piece creates space for collaborative play but doesn't enforce it

• The space welcomes all. However, neurodivergent students could choose to get prior permissions from their teachers to use the space outside of class time

Schools do a good job teaching subjects but often fail to spark a passion or even a liking for what they teach. While not meant for use in schools, this project re-introduces biological and ecological concepts through more exciting and whimsical means.

Fantastical Biology is an interactive website containing scientific ideas from Earth with alien-like creatures representing them. This website serves as a mediator between school and hobby, getting students who have an interest in science (but have yet to spark a genuine passion) to fully enjoy the subject of biology. It mainly targets fantasy and animal lovers and will spark an interest in biology through its various elements. Passion is important, and not just for mental health; it is proven that love for a subject leads to better academic performance.
