High-Level Project Summary
It gives stimulation of travelling in space and landing over different planets. It shows how a space ships travels into space with different hurdles and difficulties. In the first scene the Main Menu of the game appears which offers 5 different options.On clicking play button you enter the main scene of the game. In the first scene the take off of the space ship is shown. Later in the next scene the actual game play starts in which player needs to deal with different hurdles and pass the space ships through 5 different checkpoints can lead to Game Over. After you reach Mars the third scene gets active in which the space appears to be landing on the Mars. At last player can Exit by button.

Detailed Project Description
What did we develop?
We developed an interesting Game that gives you stimulation of space travel including launching and landing over other planet. It gives us knowledge about different aspects of space and show how space ships travel into space.
What does it do and how does it work?
It gives stimulation of travelling in space and landing over different planets. It shows how a space ships travels into space with different hurdles and difficulties. In the first scene the Main Menu of the game appears which offers 5 different options ie. Play button, How to play Button, About the Game button, Settings and Exit Button.
On clicking play button you enter the main scene of the game. In the first scene the take off of the space ship is shown. Later in the next scene the actual game play starts in which player needs to deal with different hurdles and pass the space ships through 5 different checkpoints, failing to pass through any of the checkpoints can lead to Game Over. After you reach Mars the third scene gets active in which the space appears to be landing on the Mars. At last player will have an option of EXIT button to switch back to Main Menu.
Inspiration
Many people associate the space sector with only a few specific regions of the world, and they are not even aware of how different things go on in space like the working of many space explorations missions and tasks. We wanted to create a platform where every small contribution the research will be highlighted and people will get aware with them.
Approach
We have divided the task in the 4 phases
1. Data Collection
2. Content Creation
3. App Development
4. Graphics Design
Tools and Technology
We have used an Augmented Reality Technology to develop the project and used the following tools and software and the project is majorly written in C# programming Language.
1. Unity 3D
2. Blender
3. Photoshop
How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project
We used NASA website and other agencies data to track the status of their current and upcoming projects. We have used that data to feature it in our Game.
We used NASA's Space Acts agreements to import information about NASA's Agreements and Collaborations with other Space Agencies.

Mars is a rocky planet half the size of earth.
Max and min temperature of mars.
Satellite of Mars.
Timing on Mars with respect to earth.
Hackathon Journey
The experience was awesome and me my team learnt a lot of things in this hackathon. My team was interested in game development and here we got the opportunity to create a game that can entertain and as well as give stimulations. We used to keep regular meeting to resolve issues on each of us parts of works and took help of our mentors.

We used Unity Game Engine to Develop the Game.
Recording of the project is done by OBS Studio.
