ROLE: Game Designer

​

Face Pinball was a design experiment to test the face recognition technology of the iPhone X’s front facing camera.  I devised a concept that allowed players to control individual elements of a pinball machine with their facial features, in service of guiding a ball into a goal.

 

Not many levels were made but it was enough to get the attention of the Apple Appstore, which featured the game in the US when it was released. It remains a project that I’m very fond of, not least as a way of creating some extraordinary facial expressions in its players.
