01
Project Overview
Tic Tac Toe is a modern mobile game designed with playful interactions, glowing neon effects, and an intuitive user experience. The work spans a complete UI/UX case study from design system through final showcase.
02
Project Goals
Create a visually engaging, easy-to-learn mobile game with clear modes, AI difficulty levels, and delightful micro-interactions that make every round feel fresh.
03
Problem Statement
Classic casual games often feel dated or visually flat, lacking the polish, feedback, and onboarding clarity expected by modern mobile players.
04
Design Challenge
Design a complete game interface — splash screen, mode selection, player setup, difficulty, gameplay HUD, winning states, and settings — while maintaining a cohesive neon visual language and intuitive flow.
05
Solution
A dark, neon-lit interface built around a structured design system: Luckiest Guy display type paired with Poppins UI text, a purple-led palette with cyan and pink accents, reusable buttons, toggles, player cards, and board cells. The flow guides users from splash to gameplay in seconds, with clear feedback at every state.
