Game for “The bonus years diet”

The challenge was to come up with a game that incorporates the techniques used in the book “The bonus years diet” by Dr. Ralph Felder and Carol Colman



The game:

• It is flash based
• More like a "Platform setting"
• Single player
• Objective is to increase life index by creating the correct recipe
  

The objective of this flash based game is to change a skinny guy to a healthy man. The scenario is set in the kitchen. You start off being a skinny guy.


Starting state ------->

<------Life index = -10 Life index = +5 ------->










You have the entire kitchen with all sort of utensils and groceries. Now going along with the recipes in the book you have to cook a meal. If you put in the right ingredients your life index increases and your body becomes healthy. If you create a wrong recipe or go with the wrong combination your health worsens.
In the process of the game, as the player is in the kitchen he does virtual cooking. There is a time involved in the cooking process, indexes for sweetness,sourness,salty... this makes the game realistic and also make the player memorizes the recipe.
