Super Starfish Mania: fish for friends |
Proceedings of CHIPLAY - 2015 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play, page 787--790 - oct 2015
Sedentary lifestyles are becoming increasingly common
in modern society. Living like this does however
increase the risks on health problems and diseases.
Although research on this topic has been done, it has
been inconclusive. Super Starfish Mania is an Android
application that attempts to increase the user's
awareness of sedentary behavior through the use of
gamification. By using notifications, games, rewards,
collaboration and progression, we encourage the user
to periodically take short - but active - breaks during
their days. Consistently taking these breaks eventually
leads to healthier habits and a better understanding of
an otherwise sedentary lifestyle.
