Verne: Collaborative writing app with gamification
With my 15+ years of experience in content creation and creative writing I decided to start a holistic project, in which I will design a very extensive app that is to be coded in the second half of 2023.
The idea
As I pivoted my career to UX design, I knew I could combine it with my present skills. But the generalist approach didn't take me anywhere. So, I decided to focus on narrative design where I could work on games. And then, the idea of Verne emerged.
The logic
Right, Verne.land is a big project to showcase my UX and UI skills. At the same time it has a very strict logic and details that can be applicable. I ask my mentor a lot of questions during the process.
Roles
There are 3 roles with clear definitions: Starter, Mover and Reader. I have to design the user map seperately for each of them.
Steps
Every user will be guided in the app from the begining to the end, no matter what their role is. The neubrutalist style is also helpful.
Hierarchy
The content hierarchy begins with the story. Every story can have storylines and every storyline can have episodes under them.
Screens
I've designed lots of screens and I'll design even more. But everyone's time is precious. So, I'll give the gist with some key secreens. You can always visit my Figma file to see the all screens, changes, improvements and, later, the prototypes.
