AEON MALL MINI GAME HADO THE JUNGLE

Concept Design

Hado The Jungle is a minigame implemented in the AEON Mall Vietnam mobile app including the previous game Hado The Hunter, users need to choose the AEON Mall Ha Dong in their setting to experience the game and try their best to win multiple promotion vouchers and valuable gifts. These vouchers are available at all stores located in AEON Mall Ha Dong. 

With a jungle theme, all the graphic and game elements are detail-designed to create a natural scene containing multiple trees and plants. Moreover, the AEON Mall Ha Dong branding is delicately delivered in the game through their mascot - Hado The Lion. Marvy also designed the tribal costume for the game character so that the visuals will come together in complete harmony. 

Hado plays as the representative of users and takes care of the tree by watering, trimming, and fertilizing it, making the game addictive and interesting.

UI/UX Design

UI/UX design holds a crucial role in creating a complete game. Therefore, our team follows the game’s theme to design interactive buttons, tutorial boards, and every little detail to create an interface that’s visually stimulating and user-friendly. Allowing users to have the best experience playing the game.

1. UI - User Interface

• Visually-stimulating interface
• Logical interactive buttons
• Concise content, delivers the core message to help users navigate and experience the game with ease

2. UX - User Experience

The game is integrated directly into the AEON Mall Vietnam application, which saves users the time of searching and installing another app. Instead, all they need to do is go to “Game”, tap on “Hado Rung Xanh” and get quick access to the game. After accessing, a tutorial board will display on the screen to explain the features and the gameplay. The game’s interface is studied and designed with the purpose of creating a neat layout with coherent content to make it user-friendly.

Art Design and Animation

Based on the forest theme, the objects in the game are designed to simulate a small tropical forest. The objects are beautifully coordinated in terms of visuals, the character appears in a modern tribal costume, the cute appearance leaves a good impression on the users. However, to ensure performance on mobile devices including 2 popular operating systems, Android and iOS, Marvy team has optimized these graphics, but still retains the sharpness and the visual coordination in order to meet customer’s requirements.

• Plants in Office: The most simple plants with 2 growing periods

• Plants in Garden: More complex with 3 growing periods
