We know Flutter devs love a good challenge, so just in time for the new year to really get going, we’re super excited to announce the next Flutter challenge!

The Global Gamers Challenge is an 8-week contest to design, build, and publish sustainable games, sponsored by Flutter and Global Citizen. Inspired by the mission of the United Nations-facilitated Playing for the Planet Alliance, which Google joined in 2023, international advocacy organization Global Citizen and Flutter, Google’s open-source framework for building multi-platform applications are partnering to host the Global Gamers Challenge.

What are sustainable games?

Sustainable games use the power of play to inspire positive environmental action. Imagine Candy Crush, but instead of crushing candies, you’re crushing plastic pollution! Or picture a game like Super Dash, but instead of collecting acorns, you’re turning off lights left on. Here are some more ideas inspired by Global Citizen campaigns running right now!

Encourage a reduction in home energy use

Data shows that American homes use an average 3x more kwh than the average home across the rest of the globe. Can you build a game that helps to reduce people’s reliance on inefficient energy sources?

Encourage a reduction in use of single-use plastics

Southeast Asia has some of the highest levels of plastic pollution in the world. Consider building a game that encourages players to make swaps to reduce reliance on single-use plastics.

Encourage use of public transportation and overland options for longer distances

Europe is home to many of the world’s greatest public transportation systems. Effective games can encourage people to use public transit rather than overland transport, like taking the train rather than flying for longer distances.

Just like Global Citizens do every day, we’re confident that games can encourage players to take small actions for the environment that when done collectively, lead to a large impact.

Tips on Getting Started!

SUPER DASH

Play Super Dash, a game we built to inspire you for this challenge. Help Dash capture the golden feather and watch nature be restored as she avoids enemies!

PRIZES

Winners will receive a trip to NYC in September 2024 to meet the Flutter team for a day of workshops and mentorship followed by the opportunity to celebrate their achievements with up to 60,000 other Global Citizens at Global Citizen Festival 2024!

GOOGLE WALLET CHALLENGE

If you’re up for extra credit, we’ve partnered with Google Wallet to offer an additional challenge to deploy an innovative integration of the Google Wallet API in your game. For eligible apps that feature Google Wallet, you will have a chance to win up to $30,000!

Whether you’re a Flutter developer who’s new to games, a game developer who is new to Flutter, or new to both game development and Flutter, you’re bound to learn something new while creating a positive impact on the world!

How I Got Verified on Instagram Without Being Famous

According to Instagram’s official website, verification “is a tool to help people find the real accounts of public figures and brands, and it means we verified this is a notable and authentic Instagram account.”

It was never intended to become a status symbol in society, but the fact that the culture views it as such means that it carries much more weight than letting people know a particular account is authentic.

Not long ago, I asked a friend a question. “When you see a blue check on somebody’s profile, even if you have never heard of them before, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind?” Without hesitation, my friend answered that the person “must be famous” or “at least the real deal at whatever they do.” And in this simple response lies the answer to why getting verified on Instagram matters.

“When you see a blue check on somebody’s profile, even if you have never heard of them before, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind?”
INSIDERNOTES

I spent a great amount of time building relationships with journalists and today have the contacts of thousands of writers at the world’s biggest publications like Forbes, The New York Times, Success Magazine and more.

Throughout the early months of 2021, I focused heavily on getting myself featured in top publications instead of just focusing on clients. After countless emails, pitch rejections and pitch acceptances, I built a strong line up of news articles for myself to add to my Instagram verification application.

Before submitting, however, I made the decision to do something I don’t see many people talk about when it comes to getting verified on Instagram: I pursued getting verified on other platforms first so that I could show Instagram that I’ve already been recognized as a noteworthy person.

If you have a brand or business, people buy from you and want to work with you when they know you, like you or trust you. A blue verification badge gives you instant credibility with absolute strangers even when they don’t know exactly what you do.

You become looked at as an authority in whatever space you’re in and gain power that needs to be handled responsibly because people tend to take you at your word.

I spent most of the last few years building businesses, traveling as a speaker and making content on social media.

“And in this simple responses lies the answer to why getting verified on Instagram matters”.
INSIDERNOTES

Every once in a while, small publications would reach out and write a story about me. Whenever I applied for verification, however, I always got rejected.

It was around this time that I started my PR agency and in the process of helping others land major news articles, I started doing the same for myself.

After getting verified on Facebook and TikTok, I applied for Instagram verification by submitting these social-media links along with three news articles.

Lord Frost risks inflaming tensions as he calls on EU to revise Brexit agreement

The UK government is on course for a diplomatic collision with Brussels as Brexit minister Lord Frost warned it would be a “historic misjudgement” for the bloc not to rewrite key parts of the agreement.

Accusing the EU of being “disrespectful” to Britain, Lord Frost demanded leaders effectively tear up the Northern Ireland protocol he negotiated alongside Boris Johnson just two years ago and replace it with a new treaty.

Delivering a speech in Lisbon, he risked inflaming tensions, claiming the bloc was attempting to “encourage UK political forces to reverse the referendum result or least keep us closely aligned with the EU”.

“The EU and we have got into a low-equilibrium somewhat fractious relationship,” he said.

“Fixing the very serious problem we have in the Northern Ireland protocol is a prerequisite for getting to a better place.”

Meanwhile, UK businesses urged Boris Johnson to pull back from the brink, warning that his threat to tear up the protocol could trigger punitive tariffs on British products – including 10 per cent on car exports to the EU.

INSIDERNOTES

The scene was set for a Christmas showdown, with observers unsure whether Mr Sefcovic’s initiative had provided enough “wriggle room” for Mr Frost and Mr Johnson to back down from their hardline stance.

In an eagerly-anticipated press conference at the European Commission HQ, Mr Sefcovic set out what he described as “a robust package of creative and practical solutions” to the bureaucracy and shortages that have bedevilled Northern Ireland since the full implementation of Brexit at the start of 2021.
