Push it, evolving ideas into reality
Working with some of the best in the game industry on a TBA mobile game, was an amazing experience. Leading the charge on rough design, initial user flows and gameplay, as well as look development.
Mobile Game Prototype
Working with some of the best in the game industry on a TBA mobile game, was an amazing experience. Leading the charge on rough design, initial user flows and gameplay, as well as look development. We did many conversations with mobile game users and watched multiple people play the most popular 3v3 mobile games (i.e. Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, etc.) This set up the initial conversation of how we want users to experience our story through the UI. We relied heavily on “vibe” to guide the drawings. How does each screen make the user feel? Does it draw them into our world? Is it engaging only in black and white; as well as no sound? If we can draw users into the story with hand drawn images and light interaction, we know that the strategic advent of color and sound will enhance the experience.
This was a fun way to do some light animation to entice investors and show them some very rough ideas of how we see the menus and some monetization working. All chicken-scratch drawings and animation done by me in a now deprecated program.

In February of 2020, I sat down with some friends who have amazing game experience and love mobile games. I came to the meeting to have them tell me all of the horrible reasons as to why I should not attempt to start a mobile game studio. I wanted them to talk me out of it, tell me how hard it was and the insurmountable odds to overcome. A few hours later and we were talking about an idea for a game. A few days later we were starting production of Front Runners.
This has been an incredibly fun project. From ideation to launch, there has not been a single dull moment. We have built a fun little game and we know that many people will love it!
