Knowledge is Night – “Finite-state machines”

… is a small project I developed and designed for a lab at my faculty.  It’s a learning game (a so called Edutainment component) brought to life using Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and ActionScript 3.

The setting and the characters are based on Walter Moers’ novel “The 13 1/2  Lives of Captain Bluebear”. The application’s intent is to teach sixth form students a basic understanding of abstract concepts in theoretical computer sciences.

All graphics were created by myself solely using the sketches by Walter Moers as samples and a Bamboo graphics tablet by Wacom.
