Extra hours Pt.2 "Northumbria Water"

In my group we have me, Tawhid and Davey. We are working on a game  for Northumbria Water which needs to be designed to help their employees delight their customers. So we have decided on making a game where you are sent out to a customers house because their water has stopped working. a big screen will pop up with lots of pieces of pipe in a square grid with the water supply in the top left and the customers water pipe in the bottom right, you will have to rotate the pipes until there is a path made for the water from the top to the bottom without any gaps then you will win and the customer will be happy.
It is still in early development so it hasn't beem fleshed out completely but I'm thinking about making it a cartoon style so it appeals to all workers, is easier to make concepts for (as it is Davey's favourite style) and allows for more creative ways to use the visuals.
              Davey is going to work on the concept art and is currently designing the pipes that will rotate and guide the water in the end game.
           

I'm thinking of calling it pressure pipes as there will be a timer so you get different customer satisfaction levels as in poor, average, good, excellent depending on how fast you are.
                   This will allow me to have a highscore board that has the person at the top of the scoreboard on a yellow star that stays star employee.








This will be reset everyday so everyone can has a chance to get it and could lead to some friendly office competition.
The competition also leads to getting a year contract with them worth up to £38,000!!!
