Attack of the S. Mutans! Website
Summary
Firsthand Technology created a multiplayer health game as part of a traveling museum exhibit that would teach kids how to best take care of their teeth. In a small team, I designed the website for this exhibit that served two audience groups: kids that visited in the research study, and museum exhibit program directors.
Contribution
- Wireframes
- High fidelity mockups
- Interaction design
- Animations
- Art Direction
The Challenge:
Design a website that would promote the exhibit to museums, while also offering kid-friendly take-aways who came through the pilot launch at the Pacific Science Center (Seattle).
Extra Credit: Animations
Since this website was showcasing elements of the game, it felt natural to include animate elements.
On hover, the bristle-brush bomb highlights and when clicked, it attacks the biofilm (monster) - reducing it to dust. Other animations included Dentish's steampunk-like inventions coming to life, and other characters from the game.
Embedded in every page were interactive items. The workshop image functioned like a hidden object game.
