Kids might feel helpless
in the real world when it comes to
COVID-19. Yet in the virtual
world, they’re all about shooting it down.
Twelve-year-old Israel
Smith recently designed a video game in
which cartoon-like coronaviruses are
lasered to death. With the assistance of
Mouse, an organization that helps “vulnerable youths” to creatively
use technology, Smith re-mixed the Space
Impact game to reflect society’s war
on COVID-19.
Smith is now a finalist
in a Mouse competition, the results
of which will be announced during
today’s “virtual ceremony.”
