Pollinator Panic!

2018 May

Pollinator Panic! is an educational tool developed by Penn State students in collaboration with the Center for Pollinator Research to communicate the complexity of bee community dynamics and promote awareness for bee conservation. The player acts as a field researcher who sets out to restore a damaged habitat using flora and bee species. By examining how these species interact to build a more stable community, the game illustrates research vital to the ecological health of pollinators.

My contribution to this project was the design and illustration of background art and UI elements, as well as some UX design.
