This site won two Horizon Interactive Awards! The first was 2005 Bronze award in the category of Education / Television (for the Rutgers edition of the game) , and the 2006 Bronze award in Education / Training (for the Illinois edition).
This project was adapted for Illinois State University's Illinois Center for Specialized Professional Support from the original site I designed for Rutgers University's
Nontraditional Career Resource Center in 2004 (ncrctv.com). I came up with the concept of using a game show to present the center's research information and to make it accessible to their target audience of middle and high school-aged students.
I designed and illustrated all characters and graphics, created all of the Flash slides, and animated the characters to make them more interactive. The Rutgers version has recently been updated with much more detailed drawings, and the Illinois version now has more fashionable and diverse characters.
