Hanuman Quiz Game [Version 1]: Feedback Wanted
Here is "Hanuman Quiz Game" which is based on the mythological tale that Hanuman takes sun as a fruit and goes to eat it.
This version of the game has been tested on the real device and it
worked well! The questions asked in the current version are just general
question but we can easily have question pertaining to Science, Math
etc. which may give rise to curiosity among the children or lead to
family conversation on the topic when children ask people around them
for help.
Game Mechanic:
The goal of this level is to obtain sufficient flying power so that Hanuman can fly higher getting near the sun. There are 3 types of objects: Good, Bad and Question. Hanuman is awarded with points when he takes good object or answers correctly after taking the question object. At the same time the points decrease if Hanuman takes bad object or answers incorrectly. When hanuman collects 10 points he gets one flying power. Attaining 6 of those will allow him to complete the level.
I have attached the emulator along with the source code. To select the answer when on the question screen, press B. In case it does not work find the corresponding key to B by going to Config-->Input, select "Configure" in Port 1 and set the desired key.
We are in the process of designing/developing the game and hence would love to have your feedback/suggestions. Look out for the next versions of the game , they will be out soon!

This is a good start.
It seems that feedback is lacking as to the catching of the items and also the correct/incorrect answering of questions.
It might be helpful to give a stronger emphasis on when a player has done poorly. For example, when answering a question incorrectly the screen could change a negative darker color in the background. When answering correctly the screen could change to a lighter more positive color.
Also, long term, it would be great to see an option for adaptive questioning. That is, the system learns which questions are being answered incorrectly on a regular basis and repeats them for the student until they begin to get them right. This works best with rote memorization tasks, such as multiplication or spelling.

@Gregory If we display the answers than the player will easily finish the game. As we will play again and again and complete the whole game within a day or so. We will be doing something about it.

I think it would be helpful to display the correct answer if the player chooses incorrectly.
