The Chocolate Postulate
A downloadable game for Windows, Linux, and Android
Have you ever wanted to boost your reaction speed to get better at that one game?
Have you ever had the desire to improve hand-eye coordination to help you in real life?
Have you ever just wanted to keep yourself mentally fit? (Seniors here's looking at you!)
Have no fear. We are a team of three individuals from high school (DNK Studios), and are currently conducting independent studies in neuroscience. Having learned JAVA recently, we had a strong desire to help others and therefore created...
The Chocolate Postulate: An open-source prototype of an experimental game designed to improve reaction speed, hand-eye coordination and mental sharpness through repeated play.
Our results were based on a statistical study on students and teachers in our high school. After 50 players volunteered to try out the game for a two week period for just 10-15 minutes a day, an overwhelming 92% of players reported that:
1. Their reaction speed in regards to other PC games had a moderate to significant improvement.
2. Their individual hand-eye coordination improved moderately. This was tested by giving players a ping-pong paddle and asking them to bounce a ping-pong ball upwards into the air as many times as possible. 74% of the players who reported their hand-eye coordination improved actually did improve in the amount of times they could bounce the ping-pong ball!
3. Primarily teachers and adults reported that it helped their mental sharpness and alertness throughout the work day.
