I Love Online Games: Try Alter Space!

When I was in college, I used to play free online games in Popcap, Miniclip, Reflexive and other online game site. Facebook is not yet known and Friendster doesn't have any application at that time. What I remember is that I was once addicted to Diner Dash a very popular game under PlayFirst. Who would forget Flo and her restaurant? So time passes by, Facebook is now more popular than any other social networking sites. And what makes it more popular is that they are not just there to makes friends but also it has so many applications to play.

I am so happy that a lot of games in facebook will teach you so many lessons.  In Farmville, you will learn on how to grow crops, trees and fruits as well as learning how to take good care of your pets when playing Petville. But have you ever thought  that there's a game on how to take care your planet in a proper way? 

it's ALTER SPACE!

YOUR OWN PLANET - Is your house a mess? Well, how about taking care of an entire planet? Alter Space lets gamers protect their own planets by reducing their carbon Footprint.

This is the first New Filipino-Developed Environmental Awareness game on Facebook. This was developed by AboitizPower, their aim is to educate gamers like us on how to reduce carbon footprint. This game is so easy to play but hard to do in real life. A lot of us is so careless in our environment that they tend to do things that can really harm our nature.

March 26, 2011 is Earth Hour. Alter Space made a mini-game to learn more about what should we do to give support in Earth Hour. A gamer was given two minutes to move around the house using the arrow keys to switch off all appliances by pressing the space bar. When an appliance was turned off you will gain "currentcy" also that you can use in buying some items inside your house or it can be the payment when you wanted to buy something. You will be given 5 times a day to play this game, but you can also play this as much as you want but you will no longer gain any currentcy.


DEFROST THE FRIDGE REGULARLY - That's a tip from Alter Space. Playing the game generates Earth-friendly tips that save energy and reduce carbon emissions.

Maybe some of you wold ask me what carbon footprint is. I actually don't know it but when i started to play this game, I now can understand what it is. This is the amount of carbon gas emission that a particular human activity releases into our planet. The more carbon emissions are released, the warmer our planet gets and that could harm our environment and our life. I cannot believe that we are doing simple practices that really harms our environment: these are by driving a car, cooking hamburgers, baking pastries, using household appliances, etc. I want to preserve a healthy environment for my future kids.

ALTER SPACE will teach us how to make a very good decision by choosing a right choice not just to make you happy but also minimizing one's carbon footprint. This game is so cute that anyone would love. This two cute characters will brighten up your day everytime you see them while playing this game. You can rename your planet into something that you really like. It's your own planet, every little thing you do will affect your planet. If you didn't show any care in your planet, your planet will be foggy. So be careful in making decision. Take good care our planet and everything will turn out perfect!
