SIPA: Street Kick!

Feeling a little nostalgic with childhood games you used to play? The game puts you in control of Butchukoy, a little boy out to play his most favorite game: Sipa, the Filipino street hacky sack.

Sipa, literally meaning "kick", is the Philippine version of the street hacky sack. The object of the Sipa game is to hit a shuttlecock with your feet and elbows for as long as you can. In the Philippines, players use washer with ribbons or scrap cloth.

The game puts you in control of Butchukoy, a little boy out to play Sipa throughout the streets of Manila. Earn points every time Butchukoy successfully hits the shuttlecock. Look out for litter on the streets because youll get extra points for picking them up, Youll be able to use these points to unlock other places in the Philippines so keep them coming!

Furthermore, what makes Sipa different from other games available today is the fact that there is more to it than just excitement and thrill. Sipa spells nationalism, culture, heritage, life lessons, and adrenalin-pumping gaming acts all rolled into one.

The goal of the creators of this game is to share and promote Filipino culture around the world. Part of the proceeds from this Sipa game will be given to non-profit
organizations, Mighty Minds and Filipino Matters. (www.MightyMinds.org , www.FilipinoMatters.org)
