Gamification
Juice
We ARE talking about
"Juice is typically auditory or visual, but it doesn't really need to be…it's about maximum output for minimum input."
-Martin Jonasson and Petri Purho
Juice
Breathing animation
Camera Movement
Particles
Physics
Interactive Video
New ways to juice up your site
Starting from somewhere
Breathing Animation
Breathing animations make the experience feel dynamic, rather than stale
They can be video based - but it doesn't have to be
Particles
Particles
Particles add a sense of magic and mystery
They are an efficient solution to create atmosphere without spending too much time doing animations
Implementation: Proton
Camera Movement ("Screen Shake")
Camera Movement ("Screen Shake") cont
Camera movement adds realism and drama to user actions
It can help convey meaningful actions, or serve as a reward for user action
Implementation: CSSShake/animation
Physics
Physics add a sense of fun and excitement
They let users experiment
It's a system that is familiar from real life,
but at the same leads to unexpected surprising results
Implementation: physicsJS
Interactive Storytelling
Interactive video responds and adapts to
user choice (unlike linear video)
It allows for a lean-into, rather than lean-back experience leading to even more interaction
Implementation: developer.interlude.fm
Don't overdo it!
With great power come great Clichés
Thanks!
