Bubble Boba
Welcome to Bubble Boba! A video game made on the 2025's Global Game Jam. In just three days, my team and I gave life to a cafe made for mythical creatures, where the player has to attend it's customers, know their stories and lift up their moods.
Inspired on "Papa's Freezeria" and "Good Pizza, Great Pizza".
My role:
- I designed and adjusted levels with simple mechanics and fun physics, achieving a balance of progressive difficulty.
- I collaborated under pressure in a multidisciplinary environment, strengthening the gaming experience with an accessible and challenging approach.
- I created medium-fidelity prototypes that reduced iteration times and improved the
navigability of the interface according to the game's narrative.
My goal was to give the player a glimpse into the universe they were about to enter. So I illustrated the cafe from the outside, with the elements the player would later use.
Here the player interacts directly with customers (top left). Each character has it's own personality and background, tastes and moods (top right), so the player has to be attentive to achieve the best result at the end of the day (bottom).
The three different stations where you can drag the ingredients to the customer's cup.
Challenge: Keeping it simple with a looot of ingredients, so the player doesn't loose focus on the main action
Note: Checkout the receipt and order on the bottom image!
Collectables' album. Each character has it's own favorite ingredient and cup, that can be unlocked while the player move forward in the story. Also the ingredients and cups have magical properties, each one with it's own rarity.
