A personal project that was made entirely in Adobe XD with the challenge of learning how to use the program firsthand. Not only did I learn much more about the program itself and it's functionality, I was also able to create an app focused on making better connections between gamers and the gaming community.
Gamers can login using their gamertag/username and view a list of various news updates about their favourite games from different gaming platforms.
Whenever gamers are in need of advice or stuck on a level, community chats are available for gamers to join and collaborate/engage with others.
In order to properly design the app and have it catered to users needs, I made 3 personas outlining possible concerns and objectives of different types of gamers.
Once the needs were addressed, I created a system map and user flow to get a better understanding of how the app would progress and connect.
When it came down to designing, I kept in mind a specific style guide that revolved around simplicity and pops of colour. Subtle motion graphics were made to illustrate how the app would work realistically if further developed.
