Selected for SIGGRAPH 2017's Appy Hour for Innovative Mobile Apps
What?
An interactive storybook for children learning to read!
Why?
Pete & The Orange Fox is inspired by an original story and drawings of a five year old author!  However, the picture "book" was written phonetically.  I thought it would make a fun game if the player had to figure out the correct spelling of words to proceed to the next page, thus engaging young readers!
How?
I built Pete and The Orange Fox in HTML5 for mobility. To maintain the look and feel of a story created by a child, I scanned construction paper pieces into the computer and created animated collages as illustrative moving images for the tale. Puzzles and surprises keep emerging readers amused and learning!
Outcomes!
Pete and The Orange Fox was selected to showcase at NYCArcade and SIGGRAPH's Appy Hour.
