What’s This?

GEMS is the first ever Unity video game I made with my newfound programming knowledge in C#. It was a project I made for my intro to scripting for games class where we were tasked with either making an educational game or a toddler game. I decided to make an educational game based on a concept that I didn’t get a chance to pitch for my other game design classes: a game where you micromanage different renewable-energy power stations.
