Forum thread: Any UX/UI Designers Here?

Bottom details view is not symmetric. The app icons look clickable but doesnt have feedback on hovers, and are not clickable. The menu banner is distracting with its semi-transparent look, and shouldn't have a "gap" at the top. The bottom details banner is due to non-responsive flex container, should be responsive when there are multiple elements that do not have same size (location and contaxt box)

1. u mean the 'footer' area? If so, I can move 'Contact' so it's at the same height as 'Location', would it fix it? 2. Well I get what you mean but there's nothing reasonable to do on click on the icons, maybe take the user to the respective appStore of their device, if I managed to know if they're on android/ios, no reasonable action on PC tho :/ 3. I also get what you mean, but this is something they specifically wanted so probably gonna keep it that way, do you think thinning it and reducing the blur would make it less distracting? Thanks for feedback bro :)

1. Yes, but no i think you have to not have the box be 1200px but instead like 70vh or something. 2. Maybe change the shape? Unsure if that would break association to phone apps but its difficult without having a seperate page that describes each game you can navigate to. 3. I think reducing blur might make it more distracting. If it is a requirement from client then i think you did as good as possible

thanks again :) will work on it, the (2.) is exactly that, I think changing the shape breaks the association, but I can propose to add the detail pages and it would fix the issue and also give me something to work on xd

I find the body font size a little large. It should be basic 16px. And the header "Meet the team" is too big as well. Also I don't understand why the footer height is so big. It makes no sense to have these huge top and bottom paddings. I would recommend to steal footer design from someone's else website. Overall, the landing is pretty good. Great parallax in the first section, nice blur effect of the page header and basically everything looks kinda stylish. But fix the font sizes please!

will do brother :) I'm always previewing on 30' 1440p display and I always make things look too big on 1920p :D This is something I know needs fixing, thanks for the feedback mate, gonna change the footer as well

2023-03-22 09:44

Who are we? Welcome to our indie mobile game studio you can not answer to the question that way overall its just there is so much space used and literally nothing included two photos of «meet the team» take the whole fucking screen page!

yep, I'm not responsible for the content they wanna put in, they'll probably want to add more stuff but yeah..

2023-03-22 09:45

Looks good actually I’d change the white square with Oli Christie quote it kinda doesn’t fit there Also “contact” maybe move higher a bit And copyright should be lower imo

thanks for the feedback mate :) Yeah the footer probably needs some work, everybody is pointing it out. I'm happy with the quote though, I get what you mean, but they wanted it to pop from the site, and it does. Hopefully it's not too distracting to more users

2023-03-22 09:48

I think quote might just need slightly rounded borders since its one of the only elements that have hard corners.

You should do an hover animation on the links of the header, just something like underline the text is good In mobile, the header should have a background color, not just a blur. Because when u scroll to the section with the white background, you can't see the text of the header

good idea, thanks :) I'm also gonna add different behavior to the header on mobiles. The links will collapse and there'll jsut be an icon to click which opens a fullscreen burger menu.

I can't believe noone said "don't click it's a screamer" HLTV fell off

Don't click, I've lost my dick

2023-03-22 10:25

basic site with good readability I dont think the games are showcased very well, but maybe thats intentional. If i was an indie dev i would like my games to be highlighted more. Maybe descriptions/gameplays or reviews e.g.

Yeah, we found it redundant to add it to the site, because you can just tap on the link to the App Store and you find everything there. But maybe a game detail page should be added.

2023-03-22 10:25

Why do you have Three.js installed ? Maybe add links to game images/titles more spacing under "our games" Differences of border-radius looks a bit off but is a small detail no need to change it

ahah yeah, want to get rid of it. It's just for the animated background of the About us section, we want to tweak the animation and maybe we'll just settle with a basic background in the end. I was expecting it to harm the performance but it's still pretty smooth with this bg and three.js tho

Could spot some issues with the SEO : Your titles levels are: h2 Our Games h2 Who are we? h2 Arcane Blast & Neon Play h1 Meet the team (Needs to be first title on paper) h3 Location. (need to be h2 under h1) h3 Contact h1 could have "Arcane Blast" in it, will help a lot when referencing the website Alt on logos could be "Logo Arcane Blast" or "Logo Arcane Blast Studio" maybe longer metadesc

thanks again :) The thing is, when we defined the project they told me we don't care about referencing or search engine optimizations, they just want to use it for PR just on their socials as some 'homesite' :D Tho I know I still shouldn't leave it completely in mud, I'll make some changes to fix these, thanks :)

haha yeah :D It should be a good practice to have some basics covered even though the client doesn't ask for that I'm just lazy af

2023-03-22 10:40

Looks really good, maybe you should get some moving parts/animation although I know how much work it is.

I'll do some on appear animation to each element but that's something I'll do as a part 2 :D thanks for the feedback mate

2023-03-22 10:41

Looks great ! The only thing I would suggest is making the navbar smaller and increasing the blur to about 40px. Something like this: imgur.com/a/gjdPK3G

Generic af, saw ton of such websites already.

Site itself looks fine tho. Maybe I'd make footer and header shorter.
