The Squid partnered with some great people at Fallon Worldwide in launching the second of three physics-based games for their client Johnson Controls. All games require solving challenges with creative AND efficient solutions.
All games are powered by a robust physics engine providing real world physics challenges in a fast-loading and nimble Flash environment.
Game 1: Coconut Run - Johnson Controls makes car seats utilizing coconut fiber. This game puts the misunderstood coconut front and center. Need a primer? Check out YouTube for some grassroots demos.
Game 2: Particle Pro - Your mission is to carefully route this home’s air, water and electricity particles to corresponding receptors.
Game 3: coming soon.
Enjoy.

Our good friends at Fallon brought us a wonderful idea to create a microsite and physics-based games to re-introduce the world to Johnson Controls’ many amazing products and job opportunities. The result is ingenuitywelcome.com.
We worked closely with the great folks up north to bring their concept to life, and created what we think is a super-fun way to talk about ingenuity, engineering and technology. Be sure to play Coconut Run, the first of three games we are building. It’s full of open-ended physics-based gameplay and absolutely devastating car crashes. We’re pretty proud of the real-time localization too!
