With a strong belief in the importance of the ProsocialLearn project, an initiative called Transmuted Games was created to ensure the longevity of the project’s core achievements.
The name derives from the alchemic concept of transmutation (turning something into gold), which is representative of the new organisation and its direction.
Update: Availability of the ProsocialLearn Game Store has been extended beyond the project’s conclusion until October 2018. A link to the store and contact details to register are included below.
The ProsocialLearn Game Store is an integrated browser-based digital marketplace for prosocial games that provides a range of services for both sellers (game developers) and buyers (educators).
For game developers, the ProsocialLearn Game Store is a cloud-enabled service to deploy and manage games, with the ability to create resources linked to games and create offers.
The ProsocialLearn platform integrates many ProsocialLearn functions into games, i.e. emotion and engagement monitoring, in-game achievements, games adaptation based on Prosocial Learning Objectives (PLOs) and micro-transactions.
The ProsocialLearn API allows game developers to create games that interact with the ProsocialLearn platform, providing a list of API calls for functionalities like letting the platform know when a new player has connected and learning the status of the game from the platform.
Several consortium members of ProsocialLearn, a 36-month project funded by the European Union, are producing games based on the ProsocialLearn platform that highlight the prosocial elements in the developer toolkit.
ProsocialLearn games currently in development/testing include The Season’s Soup, The Secret Word, Pushy Paddles, Tower Together, – On the Trail of the Golden Bone, Lost in Space, Emotions with Friends and The Chase.
This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation under grant agreement n°644204.
