Game design, graphics and animations, and development

MemoDeck | Transmedia Mobile
Game Developed for Magnificat Films, MemoDeck is a mobile gaming experience designed as part of a larger transmedia television series. The custom graphics engine was engineered to push high-end iOS and Android devices to their limits while maintaining broad compatibility. It features an intelligent auto-scaling system that adjusts visual settings in real-time, delivering top-tier 3D graphics on flagship models while ensuring smooth performance on older hardware. The project focuses on a unique user experience that balances total freedom of action with an incredibly intuitive learning curve.

Total Freedom in 4 Dimensions
Despite a minimalist and carefully designed interface, the game offers a vast array of features, including total control over both space and time:

  • Dynamic Camera System: Navigate around any object using an intuitive "camera magnetism" (snapping) system.
  • Streamlined Controls: Explore the scene freely using only two types of touch gestures.
  • Strategic Overview: Instantly switch to a global "bird's-eye" view of the entire scene with a simple pinch-to-zoom.
  • Temporal Control: Accelerate, slow down, or reverse time at variable speeds.
  • Character Immersion: Access a first-person perspective for every character in the scene.
  • Deep Lore: Access detailed biographies and real-time status information for the entire cast.
