MA Creative App Development Students, Phil Penny and Carl Harrison have been working together on their idea for an app where players learn how to grow all the plants they need to live a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.
As players progress through the game they will gain access to rare heirloom seeds, advanced growing techniques, and an encyclopaedic knowlege, with the ultimate goal of growing enough real food to feed their entire family, all year round.
The pair believe that food production can be achieved so much more efficiently than it is today and that Fudogotchi is a first step toward the garden of tomorrow. Having seen how virtual pets in the 90s and Pokémon in the Noughties transcended the gap across generations, Fudogotchi takes these concepts to the next level.
The future for Fudogotchi lies in reality; virtual plants will soon be representations of your home garden all managed from your mobile phone.
