Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, accounting for around 80% of all newly diagnosed cancers in the country. It is also one of the most preventable forms of cancer. Shade Smart is a serious game (currently under development) that aims to raise awareness to this problem. Through gameplay and repetition, kids are subconsciously taught to protect their skin from the sun.
Shade Smart was featured as finalist at the SimTecT2015 serious games competition.
