Build a Snowman is a Mobile Casual game developed by Dr Fun. This game was part of a game platform created for autistic kids. The whole concept of the platform was to unite kids and parents, creating a tool for the kid to express herself and for the parent to understand his child.

 

In this game, player controls Marvin the Penguin, and he must build the highest Snowman he can. Player stacks snowballs through a sling mechanic (Drag the ball back and then release to throw it). When the player is satisfied with the snowman's height, he can now customize it. It is possible to use a huge variety of items to make the snowman very unique. And each time player beats his own record in height, it is possible to unlock new items for customization.

 

On this project, Daniel Braga worked as a Game Designer and UX Designer, being responsible for basically everything, since the design process for Idea Generation to the documentation, game balance, game tester and audience researcher and community manager. Also, while on Doctor Fun, I worked as Team Leader for the game artist and programmer.

 

Michelle Oliveira worked as a Game Artist, since the design process to create the main idea of the game, to the concept phase, art creation, assets creation, UI Design, Motion Design and also supporting the programmer and assisting the game designer in game creation.
