The Process
Mock-ups
We began by creating extensive mock-ups, including concept art for world-building and detailed UI/UX studies to ensure a playful and intuitive user experience.
Background Creation
Given the app’s magical theme, numerous intricate backgrounds were developed in Photoshop, each designed to enhance the fantasy world and captivate young learners.
Assets Creation
We designed various assets, such as metronomes, musical cards, and other interactive elements, all created in Photoshop to fit seamlessly into the app's musical universe.
Animation
To bring even more magic to the app, we added animated special effects that enhance user feedback and interaction. These animations, crafted in Esoteric Spine and integrated into Unity, helped create a more dynamic and engaging learning experience.
