Title: INCUBATE: 2D Animal Lifecycle Game

Proponents: Mico Aguiman & Rod Allen Copreros

Description:

INCUBATE: 2D Animal Lifecycle Game is a match-three puzzle mobile game to be developed on Android platform that will
cater children ages 6 to 12 to help them enhance their knowledge in a fun way. It will consist of three levels (or worlds)
namely: Land, Water, and Air that represents three different habitats of species that will each have five different animals
where their developmental stage or lifecycle will be explored. The player will act as a Biologist on the gameplay. To progress
with the stages, the player must fulfill the requirements of the game including completing match-three puzzles to reveal
the next stage of lifecycle per animal. While completing the puzzle, facts about the specific species that was selected will
be shown. Finally, a random set of questions in the form of a mini quiz will be presented per level using these information
to test their knowledge.

Objective:

To develop an Android game entitled “INCUBATE: 2D Animal Lifecycle Game” that will help children with familiarization on
the lifecycle of different species.

Specific Objectives:

 The system will have a lifecycle (growth page?) module to view the stages of lifecycle, as well as information, of
different species;
 The system will have a world navigation module to show the habitats of different species;
 The system will have a match-three puzzle module to make the system entertaining while gaining knowledge; &
 The system will also have a quiz module to test the (acquired?) knowledge of the user about the lifecycles of
different species.

Statement of the Problem:

Children are not completely familiar with the stages of lifecycle of different species.

Specific Problems:

 Lack of information about a specific growth stage of a certain species;

 Lack of information on the habitats of various species; and
 An edutainment application about lifecycle of species does not exist.

Beneficiaries/Significance of the Study:

 Elementary Students – these children can acquire knowledge about the stages and lifecycle of species in general
while enjoying it.
 Teachers – the system can be used as an alternative approach to teaching their students about stages of lifecycle
of different species.
 Future Researchers – the future researchers will benefit from the study as it may serve as a reference for similar
studies and aid them in their future research.
