Summary
Teenager Vincent developed a diabetes education game on Roblox to help children understand and manage the condition, inspired by his younger brother Jerome's type 1 diabetes diagnosis. Struggling with the lifestyle changes that followed Jerome's diagnosis, Vincent used his school project to create a fun and engaging way for kids to learn about diabetes. Despite having no prior experience in game design, Vincent self-taught and incorporated personal and professional knowledge into the game. The project has received positive feedback, with around 300 downloads and praise from diabetes support groups, proving the power of creativity in overcoming challenges.
