CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

UX Design

I did a lot of market research of various approaches to mobile visual novel experiences, which aided in the user-flow for the wireframes I then created before starting on the UI Assets. With the UI I aimed for a comic-book stylisation, with speech bubbles for character dialogue, with a rough paper-like texture to the menu backgrounds.

UI Art

With the UI I developed a comic-book inspired stylisation, I also created and updated the UI design document alongside the UI elements. Elements such as the speech bubbles for character dialogue, icons and a rough paper-like texture to the menu backgrounds. I created a control page to implement for players to check gesture controls during play. I worked alongside the programmers for implementation of the UI assets to Unity.

UX Design

I began by working alongside our designer Liam to figure out all the needed screens and UI elements needed for the prototype. Then moving onto creating the user flow diagrams which were presented to Arizona, our client, during the first weeks of development, alongside the proposed vertical slice we'd be tackling, following client and team feedback I then moved onto creating wireframes.
