Following the big success of Camp Orange’s Social Web Games, Alittleb.it has created the social game “Avventura da Paura” (Scary Adventure – Avventura da Paura’s Social Web Game) for MTV Italy and Nickelodeon. The game is published on nicktv.it portal – http://avventuradapaura.nicktv.it/gioco.html.

Avventura da Paura is a Nickelodeon’s Adventure Broadcast-Game  that goes on air on Nickelodeon (the Mtv’s teen channel).

alittleb.it created the game concept, the design and the graphics, and made an hard work on writing the Flash (AS3) and PHP5 code of the Web Game Avventura da Paura.

Avventura da Paura is at most a reskin and upgrade of Camp Orange’s Social Web Games: this was possible because of the flexibility of our Social Game Development Platform (LUDUM).

Alittleb.it has developed the entire website www.avventuradapaura.it, too.


Avventura da Paura: Avatars

THE GAME EXPERIENCE:

Players, creating and customizing an own Avatar, can live in first person some Avventura da Paura-inspired adventures, facing the different challendes offered by several immediate and really engaging mini-games – like rafting in a scary torrents, flying hung by a big bat, being a scuba diver among skeletons.

The Avventura da Paura’s social web game allows players to challenge friends and other players, as the Avventura da Paura TV program does.

Moreover, thanks to Facebook Connect, players can: – share their Avatars and their own Scooby-Doo inspired Vans; – can communicate their records and their completed achievements; – can challenge friends and communicate matches results; – can chat on the application wall.

The game has been conceived to follow the same TV program’s structure – so, mini-games will be released periodically, keeping the users’ interest high.

Avatars and Vans will evolve little by little players go on to play, challenge, invite, share. The levels of the mini-game “Sulle Tracce di Asterion” will be unlocked if player will play and invite friends.
