How was it made?
Our team, along with a local school, parents and providers, came together to build the game.
It was tested with grade 3 and 4 students from a local primary school across 3 weeks. The students also helped us with drawings and ideas of what Moosh might look like, and where it lives.
Here are some photos of the process.
