Wayang Kulit 3D: Saving Sita
An adventure game, adapted from the Indian epic 'Ramayana'. This game changes the nature of Wayang Kulit (being 2D, and shadow puppetry) to 3D, with exaggerated animations and expressions. The game starts with Sita, Rama's wife, being kidnapped by Ravana, the King of Lanka. Rama then goes off to save Sita.
Target Audience
15 years and above
Goal/Problem Statement
1. What is the goal of the application?
Traditional Wayang Kulit puppets are flat. In the traditional shadow puppet shows, only the music and Dalang's (the puppet master) voice and his control of the puppets can be changed to portray emotions and actions throughout the story. This doesn't give much credit to the characters of these puppets, as usually their characters have exaggerated emotions/powers.
2. What is the application trying to solve?
To give Wayang Kulit's puppets more emotions/characters to their physical form. Oh, and also appreciate the Hindu epic 'Ramayana'.
3. What is the advantage of VR than can enhance project.
Making the puppets 3D, will give the puppets themselves the emotions that their characters carry. Doing that physically in the real world, might offend the culture and would probably make the group of people who still do/go for the traditional shows..angry. Doing these kinds of changes using a VR application would not hurt as much, as the younger generation who perhaps might not have heard of Wayang Kulit will be exposed to it in the virtual world,
4. Is this project new or has it been created before? If yes, why are you doing it again?
Unless Google made a mistake of not having this kind of project in its list, then yeah I think it's new? But of course, we've heard of those 2D games that turned 3D...Super Mario, Prince of Persia, Pac Man...Donkey Kong.
Objectives
gives emotions/look that justify the characters of the Wayang Kulit puppetsintroduce a virtually revamped version of Wayang Kulit to the younger generationappreciate the Indian epic Ramayana
Benchmarks
