A special 3d game designed by Ben Duskin and LucasArts. Ben is a 9 year old with Leukemia. Ben worked with the Make-A-Wish foundation to find a developer for Ben's game. Ben wanted to make a game that would help kids battle cancer. The game involves a changeable character riding a skateboard over an imaginary playing field, made of red blood cells and cartoon representations of viral infections. The character collects innoculents to shoot at his enemies. The player pivots his character in order to steer around objects and collect bonus shots. The object of the game is to destroy all mutated cells and to collect the seven shields that provide protection from common side effects of chemotherapy. The shields are guarded by a “monster”: Colds - Iceman Monster; Barf – Robarf Monster; Chicken Pox – Big Chicken Monster; Fever - Firemonster; Bleeding – Vamp Monster; Hair Loss – Qball Monster; Rash – Tornado Monster. Three health levels serve as ammunition in the game: Health you get from the hospital; Ammo you get from the pharmacy; Attitude you get from home. | ||
