Working with TELETOON on one of their flagship television properties, Johnny Test, we set out to reinvent the experience of game play to make it more social, cooperative, and fundamentally shared. In doing so, we linked the actual device screens so that together, they became a single screen, creating an iDevice first with co-operative across screen play. This insight made the game social, as well as more fun by unlocking a suite of collaborative game mechanics.
Working with Cookie Jar (the production company behind Johnny Test) to acquire and utilize customized game assets allowed us to extend the design and narrative elements, resulting in a feel and aesthetic that was authentic to the show’s universe and resonated with children.
Seeing kids huddled together – audibly having fun, and emotionally connecting – makes it even more rewarding. Accolades from mFWA and a feature on Mashable wasn’t bad either.
