Intro
Inspired by the real-world sport of wingsuit flying, Laya’s Horizon takes players into an enchanting world where they soar through breathtaking landscapes, complete challenges, and unlock new abilities. Creating the UI for the game has been an absolute pleasure.
UX — Wireframing & Documentation
The project was well underway when I joined, with most elements already put into place, however the UI and some user journeys still needed to be outlined.
UI Design
The project had a very strong creative vision, championed by Jason Medeiros. The vision for the UI was to be minimalistic and as unobtrusive as possible. Keeping this in mind, I tried to create a minimalistic look while still inserting some small details to make everything grounded in the game’s world.
Final Touches
Of course, no UI is done until it starts moving. Animations reflected the UI style, they had to be minimalistic, while still showing off important information changes.
