Following on from the award winning Clued up in Hull children and young people’s website, Splinter were asked to design and produce an additional game to add to the ‘13 and over’ section of the site. The game was made primarily to inform young people on the various forms of environment related crime that Hull City Council sees as a problem.
It’s split into four mini-games, each dealing with a type of crime, including fly tipping, littering, graffiti and dog fouling. Play the game here.

Following on from the award winning Clued up in Hull children and young people’s website, Splinter were asked to design and produce an additional game to add to the ‘13 and over’ section of the site. The game was made primarily to inform young people about the issues surrounding homelessness and to educate them on the best choices to make when attempting to get a job and pay rent.
There are three different characters in the game, each facing a different challenge – from budgeting for how to live alone, the best choice when moving away from parents or the best methods for job hunting. Play the game here.

Two further contracts we are delighted to have won are the contract to produce the 2010 annual report of the Liverpool Housing Trust (LHT) and the contract to be one of the service suppliers for the Sheffield City Council.
LHT own almost 10,000 homes across Merseyside and have been operating since 1965. They want an annual report to keep tenants informed on what is going on within the business, including positive things that they have been doing for tenants throughout that year. It is part of their goal to provide a quality service to customers. We are looking forward to working with such an esteemed Merseyside business.

Under the £300k framework agreement Splinter has been appointed as one of a list of approved companies winning all the lots it tendered for including: graphic design, marketing and comms, new media, cartography, illustration and digital photography.
The tender process included creating an impactful road safety campaign aimed at 11 – 24 year old pedestrians. We look forward to working with Sheffield City Council to realise road safety and other campaigns very soon.
