From Paper Cutouts to Virtual Cards: Making the Tabletop Interface for Lost Cities is a Game & App Design talk by Lesley Klassen (The Campfire Union) during the Oculus Connect 2 on September 23, 2015.

Description

Discover the process used to design the virtual interface for the card game Lost Cities on Gear VR. Examine the mistakes and assumptions made in designing the tabletop interface, and review a few “do’s and don’ts.” Review how scale, field of view, typography, art style, and the use of grids can affect tabletop design to improve readability and avoid neck strain. Finally, learn how a little arts and craft time can make all the difference.
