- Level One, a gripping new puzzle game, hits iOS and Android
- Developer Sam Glassenberg drew inspiration from caring for his daughter
- Partnered with a charity, Level One highlights the nine million people living with type-one diabetes
Gaming’s potential to boost charity outreach is often overlooked. While collaborations between charities and major game releases are rare, they can spark intrigue, as seen with the vibrant, fast-paced puzzle game Level One.
Level One’s roots trace back to developer Sam Glassenberg and his wife’s journey managing their daughter JoJo’s type-one diabetes diagnosis. Glassenberg shares the challenges of maintaining a delicate balance with insulin injections and constant monitoring of JoJo’s diet.
Despite its bright visuals, Level One offers a tough challenge. The gameplay demands focus, where even a brief distraction can end the game, subtly reflecting the vigilance required in diabetes care.
Spreading Awareness
Level One’s launch aligns with Breakthrough T1D Play, a diabetes awareness charity founded by gaming industry parents of children with type-one diabetes. With over nine million people affected and 500,000 new diagnoses weekly, the cause is urgent.
Level One is poised to raise awareness while captivating mobile gamers with its intense challenge. Set for release on March 27th for iOS and Android, watch for its store pages and dive in!
