Client's request
The customer wanted to recreate the classic game "Rock, Paper, Scissors" in a new format for Android and iOS platforms. He was interested in creating an entire virtual world in which he would reinvent the approach to this game.
Result
We turned the customer's concept into a reality by creating an exciting yet familiar game "Rock, Paper, Scissors". The game embodies 6 unique characters, each with their own set of unique bonuses that add certain effects in case of winning or playing, which completely changes the approach to this ancient game.
CUSTOMER's FEEDBACK

TAKESHI
I am really pleased with the work on the Rock, Paper, Scissors project. The team reinvented a classic game in this project. The variety of characters and unique power-ups add depth and complexity to the game, which is what I wanted to see.
To effectively control development, we use the following tools:
Weekly reports for the customer - every week the project manager generates a global report with the work done. It consists of described tasks, attached videos and screenshots, and at the end a playable build with integrated innovations.
Jira - for general task control, we use Jira. Here are all the tasks in order, as well as links to the technical tasks attached to each card.
Notion - in this space, the game design team generates a global GDD that describes all parts of the project in as much detail as possible.
Figma/Google Drive - these two services fulfill one task - control and storage of all visual materials of the project.
Daily calls/meetings with specific team members - every day the project manager has a meeting or call with one of the groups of specialists (UI/UX, Developers, etc.).
Weekly meetings with the whole team - every week there is a big meeting where the whole team discusses global tasks, work done, and clarifies the plan for the next week.

While working on the "Rock, Paper, Scissors" project, the biggest challenges were the creation of multiplayer and the integration of a dynamic user interface. These tasks required careful planning and coordination, but thanks to the professionalism of each member of our team, we were able to solve them successfully. The result was that we were able to create a game that gives users a unique gaming experience.
