  • A challenge of creating a social system in a children’s game is not allowing to much personal information to be shared between players.

  • We solved this by only allowing essential information on a “Friend’s List” page like: username, favorite in-game location and player level

  • I developed a new system which allowed a user’s profile to be displayed when you “tap” on their avatar. This an intuitive and fun solution which created an intreractive landscape where players could easily add eachother as a friend
