Retro Gamer

Back to the future!

A special thanks to Zajno design team for allowing me to take part in this retro gaming web app. Nostalgia-inducing video games in the design for the Online Gaming Museum – that took me straight back to my childhood. Now, though, it’s time to go to the next stage and bring them to life through animation! This work is all about arcade games and retro themes, so I thought it made sense to show the text in the form of pixels. To that end I used CC Block Load and Mosaic effects. If you switch between photos, you notice strong graininess, which is made via Add Grain Effect with the Kodak Vision 800T preset. The photographs are designed through a symmetrical change in the shape of the mask. If you hover over one of the photos, you’ll notice different reactions from each of its constituent parts.

The 80's and 90's

This web app was built for a wholesale gaming manafacturer of a wide range of arcade games and systems. By merging retro games with vendors across the globe, we can help keep the 80's and 90's gaming industry alive by retro fitting the experiences with modern standards.

Animations and effects

More surprises are to come when you hover over the links – the cursor changes into an image of the game. The Online Museum aims to let you check out arcade machines in all their glory without leaving home, so it was crucial to work on the details as 3D models to make them look real.

We have came so far when it comes to gaming so it is a good idea to understand where gaming and arcade games originated, to truly grasp the leaps and bounds that have been overcome to get where we are today with mutiplayer online gaming, and virtual reality experiences. Are you ready, player one?
