Secrets of Mobile Game UI Design

The user interface (UI) of a mobile game is the first thing a player will notice while running through the game. A decent game UI will engross the player to the game and will help to play it more in return. In this post, we will talk about 3 three pitfalls to avoid while designing a good game UI.???

1. Too Much Information??

The first thing to avoid is providing more information to the player. Some designers go by this concept because they think that the player will understand the game even better if there are many instructions given. Which is not true.???

Simplicity is the key. Using familiar elements, or icons can convey the message to the player more effectively. It helps reduce confusion and gives more clarity to the player.???

2. Low Contrast??

What if we put a green button on a green background? Certainly not, because the button will not jump out and the player's attention will not be captured. So, one of the essential elements while designing the game UI is creating contrast. If we are having poor contrast of the UI elements, which makes the elements look similar to each other, leads to the boredom of the user.???

So, to capture more attention of the users the designers should create contrast. For example, the dangerous area and the safe area can be shown by the color contrast between red and green.???

3. Making the Audience Think??

What is obvious, clear, and understandable to you might not be clear to the players. So, we should always try and aim to incorporate intuitive aspects. Most mobile game players don’t have the time to think deeply about the game, so you need to convey the goal of elements in the simplest way possible.?
