Level One, a challenging new puzzler launching March 27th on iOS and Android, offers a unique blend of gameplay and social impact. Inspired by developer Sam Glassenberg's experience caring for his daughter with type-one diabetes, the game aims to raise awareness for this condition affecting over nine million people worldwide. The demanding gameplay, requiring constant attention to avoid failure, serves as a powerful metaphor for the daily challenges faced by those managing type-one diabetes.
Developed in partnership with Breakthrough T1D Play, a diabetes awareness charity founded by parents in the gaming industry, Level One cleverly leverages the reach of mobile gaming to promote understanding and support. With 500,000 new type-one diabetes diagnoses each week, the need for increased awareness is undeniable.
Level One’s colorful visuals belie its intensely challenging gameplay. Even brief distractions can lead to a game over, mirroring the constant vigilance required in managing the condition. This innovative approach to raising awareness may resonate deeply with players, offering both entertainment and education.
