First Design Prototype

Slight changes i made from from the wireframe based on feedback:

  • Merge the splash screen and landing page – Also upon opening the app, it will automatically show the dessert restaurants around you by random order
  • Leave out Desserts as a tab option & incorporate it as a search bar
  • Reduce the amount of text on your DASH cart page

Here’s just a layout design of the main pages.

Digital Prototype on little kitchen

What I learned from paper prototyping
My initial idea of this kitchen is an app designed for two kinds of users – foodies and cooks, which is too ambitious and it turned out to be odd while testing. The users get confused when they were playing with the paper wireframes. Without the explanation, it’s not that clear for first time users.

That’s why in the flinto prototype, I removed the functions for cooks and refined the whole apps. Now it will only serve users who are trying new food at new places.

Crossy Road – App Review

http://www.crossyroad.com/

I didn’t notice that this app has been so popular that the vide review has been played for over 1,000,000 hits. I like the aesthetics, it reminds me of one of my favorite games – Minecraft. Each character is nicely designed and looks every appealing. The according map they design is funny and perfectly fits the character. And they hide nice details in the process when playing the game. The ad added there is acceptable too.

The UI is pixelated, pure colored and simple enough to play with. The gaming is simple too. I personally are not a big player but I play it now and then without any notification from the app. So I think this is a success.
