Filipino Made Facebook Online Game to Educated Gamers to save Mother Earth

One of the Philippines' leading companies is launching a Facebook game application that is geared towards educating people about carbon footprint and cleaner and renewable sources of energy and how to be more responsible and mindful of their activities could help achieve this end.

The game is called Alter Space, and it is the first Philippine-made Facebook game that directly addresses the greater public about the ways with which they could do their share in proactively contributing to the preservation of the Earth’s resources. 

Alter Space is easy to use. Game players’ mission is to take care of their own little planet.  They do this by keeping their carbon footprint levels low, while still keeping their Happiness levels up.  They will have to accomplish fun tasks and challenges while their carbon footprint is measured.  

Every choice they make affects their environment, and the game always gives feedback as to whether the player’s choice was environmentally sound or not. They can also invite friends to be their neighbors, and their over-all carbon footprint as a community will be calculated.

                                                                        minimize the carbon footprint emission

If they fail to make the cleaner and greener choice, their virtual planet will experience disasters like Smog, which cause their avatar to lose interaction, and Heat Wave, wherein they will have to perform extra tasks or pay a fee to bring their carbon footprint down.

 In the game, you are provided your home, where every choice you make, 

may affect your carbon footprint emission

 Alter Space has local Filipino elements in the game such as the Turo Turo
