Sanya Gudi, 12, showcases her App Inventor project, 'Virtual Singapore Zoo Tour' , for Coding Lab’s International Coding Showcase 24/25!

"My game is a virtual zoo tour with 3 zones: Reptile Kingdom, Australasia and Elephants of Asia. Each zone has a page of information and a game. There is also a screen for my favourite animals. Reptile Kingdom has a quiz game that includes time and score variables. Australasia is a clicker game where you make the kangaroo jump as many times as you can before the timer runs out. The last game is a reverse ivory game. You drag an elephant with a net across the screen trying to catch the hunter.” - Sanya Gudi

With a passion for coding and protecting animals, Sanya’s project and video presentation earned her the Silver Award in the Senior Category! 🏆
