UN's World Food Program (WFP) Uses Director to Educate

Among today's flurry of news is this tidbit...

The United Nations' World Food Program (WFP) has released a downloadable projector game, created with Director, that is meant to help teach young kids about the efforts involved in fighting world hunger. The download is rather large, in excess of 200MB, but that's largely due to the sheer volume of video involved in the game. If you have the bandwidth it's an interesting look at how Director, QuickTime video and a wee bit of 3D can be used to create edutainment content.

The game is called Food Force and it can be found here:
