- Production Technology
- At the beginning of the design, we conducted brainstorming, mind mapping, scene interviews, etc. In the realization part of the project, we used Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Figma and Blender.
- Design Challenge
- From story to interface, we are different from traditional app and integrate many parts similar to game design, which makes us very happy.
- Research
- We conducted in-depth research and interviews with groups suffering from anxiety and depression for a long time. Then found that most of today's psychological apps are difficult to really long-term anxiety. The dredging of negative emotions requires long-term self-guidance and external guidance. So we want to solve this problem in a game way of a journey.
- Inspiration
- In an increasingly stressful society, a large number of people suffer from anxiety or various mental illnesses.
Wandering aims to help people relieve negative emotions such as anxiety through a light gamification approach.
Wandering is a new concept in psychological apps that has the potential to help everyone get rid of negativity and find their way to a better life. - Project Duration
- The project started in September 2021 and finished in January 2022 in Shanghai.
- Operation Flow
- At the beginning of registration, users will choose their own spiritual body. Users start a spiritual journey by playing their own spiritual body. After recording their feelings every day, users will get corresponding feedback to guide users to rethink problems from different angles and establish a positive attitude. Meanwhile, wandering will also conduct light social matching through big data. During the trip, you will encounter encouraging words left by friends who are similar to your situation. After achieving phased results, users can step into the next area and continue their journey. In addition, wandering also provides meditation function.
