Class today was productive. I worked more on color theory and the overall aesthetic for BrainyAct. I found that the best look is to go with a black and white color scheme and have the colorful aspect of the game be associated with the types of challenges that come with the game. I originally experimented with primary colors (red, blue, yellow) with the addition of a bright green. However, after looking at the concept art and mockups, I decided to go against the brighter colors and instead chose a pastel color scheme for the same colors. This gave the look a more unique feel and made the game feel better art-wise.
Next week I plan on elaborating on the experimentation I did and begin to test the game mechanics. Until then I will be working on making at least 5 challenges per color category and do some user research/testing while doing so. I think this would be a good addition to the portfolio as well.
