Nimzy formed a team with Tony Lopez and Imani Maya Woodward to build A VRChat experience that incorporates education with story, raising awareness about the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal #3, "Good Health and Wellbeing."
This experience was a second level winner of the Metaverse for SDGs Global Prize & VR Competition.
The final product is a journey through an interactive, futuristic tale centered around Perrin Galloway.
As guests step into the experience, they witness an accidental invention that brings an unexpected burst of color into Perrin's dreary existence. Visit here to walk through Perrin's world and watch the story unfold around him as he discovers just what it is that he has invented and how he can use it․ You will intimately experience a story of hope where you will be reminded that life doesn't have to be gray‚ and that even just a little more awareness of the world around us can bring more color into our existence․
In this world you will find...
