Summary
Honors Program students developed “The Giving Forest,” a video game about sustainable forestry, in collaboration with Menominee Tribal Enterprises (MTE). Presented at the Arbor Day Peace Tree Planting Ceremony, the game educates players on forest management, incorporating challenges like tornadoes and fires. This project, built upon a 2021 Earth Day game, involved a detailed study of MTE’s sustainable practices. Students Joshua Felske, Kyle Leverence, Syndey Madden, and Samuel McPeak contributed their skills in artwork and coding, using Unity for development. The game will be shared globally with Indigenous communities and schools to promote forestry education. MSOE will continue this collaboration next year.
