I decided the currency display and popcorn bucket were the initial mechanics the player would see and interact with, this was intended to provide a intuitive introduction to the game with little distraction. - When the player either held or tapped the popcorn bucket, I provided user feedback through having popcorn spray out of the bucket, along with a satisfying “pop” SFX. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1529647409077-XXQU0U3XTO417APO9S8J/Upgrading_Business.gif Other Projects - I designed the upgrade button to highlight blue when an upgrade was able to be purchased. - I created a progression bar, showing the amount of purchases needed before the business would get a multiplier. -It would then highlight a red cube to green, when a multiplier had been achieved. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1529648739679-M5WWQVJ8A8O6W16D8JTL/Discover.gif Other Projects - Once a predetermined amount of total currency is met, the next business for purchase is shown. This was to encourage the player to discover/explore the game. -In summary, the prototype provided a strong foundation that I was able to use in discussing the purpose and reasoning behind the design. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1592005088411-C2Q0ZALW2HVYSZ1TST5F/Screenshot_02.png Other Projects Long boat is docked, the player is now able to purchase trade goods to then sell back at the trading dock. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1592005137659-OP626IX4EZ1HIJUGN1QI/Screenshot_04.png Other Projects Using unity’s terrain tool and navigation, I was able to produce the canals that the long boats would travel through. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1592005112845-59QG6JYLCFZFW5V8U9TP/Screenshot_03.png Other Projects When the player had enough currency, they are able to invest in expanding the numerous trade routes, earning passive income. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1600661883533-A4MMZPGMX2VTBOVJC0X7/Sorcerer%27s+Watch+Thumbnail_01.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1600661987339-7TZRQDWI9683SA9T03CL/FrostBoss_Thumbnail_01.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1600662214326-XL1YFD3H5YWGYQ9OV0JT/Environments_02.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1600662067559-JFG0PLK1NMZ6JJUWHW60/Environments_01.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1600661932824-SP2O1GDKI4AL8H3D7GKN/FireBoss_Thumbnail_01.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1606089165465-2XOXH0Q2V6VF7Z6VAT0K/screenshot_12.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1606088820695-T7899SHJZCYYJ5O9N1LJ/screenshot_02.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1606088905505-4WABE8PJTRT5Q2GL3YDR/screenshot_08.png Other Projects https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/262ffcf3-e2be-43a6-8e4f-e1087b47ae7a/Youtube_screengrab.PNG Other Projects - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/594e42d7-670e-4ff5-883a-6b396c8ff041/Capture.PNG Other Projects - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://jasoncrawford.design/lumberjackvalley-index daily 0.75 2023-01-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1606881301706-6ZCTDKRV8CT4GZWPVP2K/Screenshot_01.png LumberjackValley Index https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/fa2e3b34-6275-4ef5-baf7-17ebb2b45238/HitsPerAxe.PNG LumberjackValley Index - Make it stand out The above calculator is used to determine Number of Hits a Tree type must take from an Axe Type before being chopped down and rewarding the player. Eg, Oak_01 requires 30 hits from a Good Axe while it would require 19 hits from a 2H Good Axe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/a9724382-201f-4e74-be0a-1329d99d30f1/TimeToReachBestAxe.PNG LumberjackValley Index - Make it stand out Discovery: During the creation of this calculator I realised I had the opportunity to provide more logs to a big tree of a specific type. eg. Oak_02 provides 2 Logs for cutting down the tree, while Oak_01 provides 1 Log https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/3f4d7d31-a9ff-49f9-941e-1ea81036943a/IntialGoogleSheet_02.PNG LumberjackValley Index - Make it stand out Problem: There is data in this spreadsheet but how can I make this useful? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/42fb979e-b3e8-4d1b-ad0a-8dbc9a02df4d/Economy.PNG LumberjackValley Index - Make it stand out Problem: The major problem is players aren’t necessarily going to be cutting down the exact same tree type, therefore they’ll be earning a variety of log types. So this isn’t a good indicator of player progression but it does provide us with more information. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/1606881172539-NDQWQEWB4888OWLHUF85/Screenshot_10.png LumberjackValley Index https://jasoncrawford.design/asteroidfury-index daily 0.75 2023-01-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/11b5708b-8a35-48a6-9998-d95171067792/Powerups.gif AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Problem: Too much text, colours were flat and jarringly inconsistent, didn’t explain level of the upgrades. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/44d1aef1-fec5-4ca2-9c91-5ea8bd6f2803/MainMenu.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Problem: Buttons aren’t readable to non-English speakers/readers, colours are flat and Font spacing isn’t wide enough. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/9078a25f-86cd-401c-87c5-e18ed4857212/In-game_01.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/b31f85da-5019-4c29-98f6-e0bce1b3e276/MainMenu.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/50b1d9c9-6e8d-41b2-b898-97bf507374cb/In-game_01.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Problem: Flat colours, gameplay elements disappear into the background causing difficulty in visually reading the game. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/67335bcd-b72f-4aff-92d0-1c3c46f5a19d/Final_ingame.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Solution: Contrasting Colours, gameplay elements are easier to visually digest and identify what’s going on. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/56ed0e17-e408-4207-9f66-c9bed808d262/Store_UpgradeChanges.gif AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Solution: Tightening up the necessary text, contrasting colours, shown level of upgrade, home icon added for Main Menu. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/2648469e-acb6-4264-9ba6-053602dc8659/Final_Menu.png AsteroidFury Index - Make it stand out Solution: Buttons have Icons resembling where they navigate, Font is digestible with it’s spacing, Colours are contrasting. https://jasoncrawford.design/needforspeed-index daily 0.75 2025-08-08 https://jasoncrawford.design/aboutme daily 0.75 2025-08-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/74415c29-8a1b-47e4-a559-5d942a499512/IMG-5390.jpg About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac5edf07c93277eee4120e2/460add01-cd5e-47d9-8fa3-eb1670d8b5b9/Jason+Crawford+Website+Resume.jpg About Me - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://jasoncrawford.design/contact daily 0.75 2022-01-26
