Ubisoft has announced ‘The Journey Project’ – an initiative in which gamers will be able to help complete the final level of the Child of Eden video game by submitting the favourite memory-inducing images of life on Earth.
Gamers can submit their personal photos for consideration by visiting the Child of Eden website. Examples include smiling faces, beautiful nature shots, stunning landscape views, and other happy and positive images. The deadline for submissions is November 20, 2010. All approved photos will be featured in the final level of Child of Eden.
“The theme of Child of Eden is ‘Hope and Happiness’ and I want players to experience happy feelings every time they play the game,” said Tetsuya Mizuguchi, Q? Entertainment studio founder and Creative Director of Child of Eden.
“I need your help to convey these positive emotions, so please send us pictures that give you good vibes so we can include them in the ending of the game,” said Mizuguchi.

Child of Eden thrusts the player into the center of a battle to save Project Lumi, a mission to reproduce a human personality inside Eden, the archive of all human memories. As the project nears completion, the archive is invaded by an unknown virus. The player’s mission is to save Eden from the virus, restoring hope and peace.
Child of Eden is a motion capture title utilising Microsoft’s Kinect and Sony’s Move devices. The game’s visuals and gameplay are a kaleidoscopic matrix of synchronized music and psychedelic visuals. It defies explanation with mere words, check out the video below.
