Steve Hoefer : Flash Application Design & Development : Work

 
Client: Leapfrog

Project: Math Baseball

Provided: Game Design, interface design, programming.

Description: Leapfrog's Leapster(tm) is a portable GameBoy like device for educational games. It has a color touch screen and accepts cartridge based software running an embedded version of Adobe's Flash 5.

This project created a launch title that made learning math tables fun. Working with Leapfrog's internal education advisers the end result is Math Baseball (Amazon.com listing).

Working in the heavily restricted environment of the embedded device created some unique challenges during development which required an optimization of art, audio and programming assets to create a fluid fun experience for children. Since it was a launch title, I literally wrote the book on developing for the device.
