Motivation

Context

GameFi 1.0 projects like Axie and Stepn are losing attention due to issues like poor game quality, low playability, and unsustainable economic models. The rise of P2E schemes and the evolving landscape of Web3 games suggest a need for improved models. Mature GameFi as a Service (GaaS) anticipates significant demand, aligning with the international gaming strategy. We focus on GaaS involves exploring new Web3 game forms, aiming to reduce development costs and enhance the Web3 experience for traditional players.

Goal

Design a GameFi as a Service (GaaS) platform with integrated wallet and marketplace capabilities, allowing producers to seamlessly integrate it into various games.

Orientations

Two page orientations

To adapt to both landscape and portrait orientations in games, it is necessary to design for both directions, and the functionality must be entirely consistent (some adjustments may be made for specific landscape designs that require functionality reduction).

Rule

In portrait format, Layer 1 is positioned at the top. When shifted to landscape format, it will be placed on the left. Conversely, Layers 2 and 3, located at the bottom in portrait format, will be on the right in landscape format.

Redesign the elements for landscape format

Due to size changes in the area, elements cannot be directly moved between two page orientations.

Quick Links

Although the overall area increases, if buttons are enlarged proportionally, they would be too eye-catchy. Therefore, as the clickable hot zone expands, the icon shrinks.
