Singapore 2010 Odyssey

March 6, 2010 by mhisham · 5 Comments 

Singapore 2010 Odyssey is the first 3D virtual world based on the inaugural Youth Olympic Games to be held in Singapore from 14-26 August 2010. Travelling through space and time, you will enter a world of the future and interact with friends across the globe on a journey to discover the Olympic values of Excellence, Friendship and Respect.
This is the initiative that the Singapore organisers feel will increase the participation of the younger Singaporeans, who are probably more in-tuned to the games offered within the virtual world.

I tried the game at a preview early this week and feel really at home throughout the experience. The game is smooth and controls are easy to navigate. There are useful pop-up boxes which assist with the in-game experience. This includes the navigational guide, public & private chat boxes and the games dock which enables you to choose the games you want to play. My personal favourite is archery! ;)

Here’s a quick look at the behind the scenes decision making that transpired into the virtual world.

Youth are also encouraged to create a poster design for Singapore 2010 Odyssey which has been extended to 19th March 2010. There are prizes to be won worth $6000!
