Target Audience
You play as a unicorn in a world that’s lost all its color. Step by step, you bring the shades back painting life into everything around you.
Overview:
You play as a lone unicorn wandering through a once vibrant world that has turned colorless and lifeless. As you explore forests, city, mountain and wetland stripped of color, your every step and action restores fragments of light and hue to the land.
The Process:
I designed this game as part of my level design project. It started with a simple idea: what if levels didn’t have to follow a straight path? Instead of the usual “one after another,” each level here can be played in any order, like pages in a storybook you can flip through freely.
01.
Research
Every project starts with a conversation. I took time to understand the goals, target audience, and vision to create a strong foundation.
02.
Ideation
With kids as targer audience, I ideated mechanics and level designs around colors. It started with "How colors can be visually expressive where progression is intuitive?"
03.
Design
With a research-backed approach, I craft an intuitive and visually appealing game for kids.
04.
Development
Time to bring the vision to life! I develop a full game, ensuring smooth gameplay and optimized game UX.
I start by understanding your vision and audience, then dive into research to build a strong design foundation. Once the UI is crafted, I focus on transforming it into a fully functional website.
Core Gameplay Loop
Each level has fragment of color that needs to be collected and obstacles to be avoided to complete
Map Design
There are four worlds to bring back to life — the mountains, the forest, the wetlands, and the city. Each one has its own color and mood, waiting for you to find it again. The cool blues of the mountains, the calm greens of the forest, the dreamy purples of the wetlands, and the warm glow of the city — together, they form the world’s missing palette.
You can explore them in any order, each adding its own shade to the unicorn’s journey of bringing color back to everything.
Level Progression:
There are five levels in the game one is the base world, where your journey begins, and the other four are distant regions, each containing a fragment of color.
You can visit these regions in any order, uncovering new shades with every step.
Each time you complete a level, the colors you’ve restored begin to flow back into the world restoring the land, the sky, and your path with life again.
The environment itself becomes your progress bar, a living canvas that quietly shows how far you’ve come in bringing color back to the unicorn’s world.
