Can anyone help me create a online browser game for children between 8-10 to help them learn maths, english and science.
Basically need a browser game that only allows students from that school to login and play.

This is somewhat of the game thinking...
Login
Create avatar once only but can be edited. Choose from standard male, female, princess, witch, wizard, troll, warrior, werewolf etc...
Initially receive enough honour points to attain basic clothing from the shop.
Login everyday = 2 experience points as incentive.
Previous game status load from database/server
Spawn site
See menu bar and announcement bar(for general warnings and updates)
Check rank status e.g. current task to do, tasks complete... level rank Noob, Scout, Star, Prestigious, Master, Lord, king/Queen.
Noob = 0 to 49 experience + 5 bonus honour points
Scout = 50 to 149 experience + 10 bonus honour points
Star = 150 to 299 experience + 15 bonus honour points
Prestigious = 300 to 499 experience + 20bonus honour points
Master = 500 to 799 experience + 30 bonus points
King/Queen = 800 +experience + 50 bonus points(male = king, female =queen)
Level rank acquired by gaining level experience through battle with friends with zombie teachers and battle as a group.
Noob v Noob winner receives 5 exp points, 2 honour points
Scout v Scout winner receives 5 exp points, 3 honour points
Star v Star winner receives 5 exp points, 4 honour points
Prestigious v Prestigious winner receives 5 exp points 5, honour points
Master v Master winner receives 5 exp points, 6 honour points
Lord v Lord winner receives 5 exp points, 7 honour points
King/Queen winner receives 5 exp points, 8 honour points
Defeated player loose 10 exp points and may drop item from their inventory.
Zombie teachers (always around) walking around the map can be attacked to gain 1 exp point(can lose 1 point if defeated)
League battles explained below
Quests in specific areas of the map allow the player to have a particular subject based questions. Such as in the science area of the map you only receive science questions and if in that particular day you received homework on the subject that can be uploaded on to your game for the player to complete using all the help features e.g. friends online at the same time using the chat function, some
Move to desired location with mouse or arrow keys
Battle with fellow students to gain experience (battle = two students answering random maths, English, science questions under time constraints). The winner reduces the opponents experience and ups theirs by 10 points. Also there is a possibility to acquire items dropped by the loosing opponent such as a shield that was attained previously through completing tasks. Although these drops are random. You can only battle players with similar levels of experience therefore not bullying other players + both players need to agree to battle.
Chat bubble on top of avatar = talk to fellow students. Go near player click in the chat bubble and enter text.
Consol at the bottom displaying/reporting events occurring in real time
Move to desired part of the map Science= spaceship (depends on theme in school); English = cottage in the woods; Mathematics = power plant; league task as an Arena. Shop =Market where honour points are used to purchase items such as amour upgrades, weapons and clothing.
Complete tasks such as timed maths equations, spelling, fill in the gaps and multiple choice questions.
Difficulty level increases as level of students experience increases through completing tasks foundation level question for Noob, Scout, Star players
Intermediate level questions for Prestigious and Master
Advanced level questions for Lord King/Queen
Completed tasks reward by giving the player experience and honour. The higher the experience the higher the ranking level. Honour points allow you to purchase items such as weapons, clothing and shields. This is stored in you inventory under the players “My account” tab.
Inserted tagged videos embedded to tutor students finding tasks difficult, approved by the administrator. Example trying to complete a long division but finding it difficult a link to a you tube video explaining how to do the task + a worked out answer after 10 (or 3 for a multiple choice answer with 4 choices) attempts but this means the player looses 20 experience points encouraging players to try and solve problems.
Create a league after reaching intermediate level max members in a league = 30 (this encourages class versus class competition). Join a league at any time as long as the league leader accepts the player. Battle with other leagues to gain experience and honour rewards through team work. The members of two or more leagues need to join the server at a specific time to battle. The battle consists of answering questions the quickest. All logged in members at the battle arena will get the same questions the fastest answer receives a point. There are 20 questions the league with the highest score at the end receives the reward. Each player in the league can answer three questions and blocked for the next 3 questions, this encourages team play rather than one individual taking over.
Menu bar on top of page= My account, League, Ranking, Forum, Admin, Quit
My account tab should include rank status, exp points tasks to do e.g. homework, completed quest history, history of battles, inventory of items, league joined
League Tab shows a leader of a league that has a list of friends that help in battling with other leagues. The result of previous league battles. Quit league.
Ranking Tab allows player to view their ranking compared to fellow players. Broken down to individuals and league ranking showing the position (1, 2, 3, 4..), status of league leader( king/queen) and level of experience.
Forum Tab for blogging(research/ questions and answer), forward errors in the game.
Admin Tab for the school to upload new tasks, view student progress and asses level of support needed for the student.
Quit tab asks if you wish to quit the game.

Is this possible to do within a week???
I am a noob was watching the ajax tutorial and soo lost was hoping rather than clicking the travel directions button isnt there a way of clicking in the actual game sceen to get the character to move there?

Any help would be greatful in design, imlement and testing .... would through paypal.... help please

Hi AnnaMandos,

was hoping rather than clicking the travel directions button isnt there a way of clicking in the actual game sceen to get the character to move there?

A html image map would be the quick solution to this. There isn't any need to plonk over to ajax, and I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Doing it within a week would be a challenge for any team. You could get a prototype within a week, but there are still allot of to do for something like this (images, logo design, hosting, etc.).

It really depends on how much you're going to do yourself and how much you have to work with. Due to the internet, you probably could do it within a week, but you'll have to outsource most things.

Sorry end bit was supposed to say Would pay through paypal... thanks for the reply Paxbritannia
I dont mind outsourcing it you see its for a disso project and well the right up is going to take forever and its gota be handed in on the 28th of this month ... i am so screwed..

Disso project?

pax.

Seems you`ve got a big problem. Building a game isn`t in 2 weeks isn`t going to happen if you ask me

willing to pay £500

there are people here that could get something going in two weeks. Chris might be able to help.

Thanks hallsofvallhalla

Sounds interesting
