Androidify

With: Red Paper Heart
For: Google Creative Lab
Role: Game developer

For its Androidify campaign, Google tasked Red Paper Heart with creating a set of games to be played in Times Square, on the largest screen in North America. Over the course of the project, we prototyped 15 games and ultimately arrived at 4 game concepts to put into production.

For each game, users had to puppeteer their customized Android character on the big screen through live motion tracking. My creation, the Swimming game, was an exhausting race from the bottom to the top of the ocean, where players had to avoid obstacles and catch power-ups by waving their arms.

It was built in Javascript using the Pixi.js engine as part of a larger networked system created in collaboration with a big group of brilliant developers.
