A dynamic platform crafted to deliver an immersive fantasy cricket experience, blending real-time data with user engagement.
SuperCric is a cutting-edge fantasy cricket app designed to immerse users in the thrilling world of cricket through a seamless and intuitive user interface. As the lead UI designer, my objective was to create an experience that not only captivates users visually but also simplifies complex gameplay elements. The design process involved extensive research, prototyping, and user testing to ensure that every aspect of the app—from team selection to in-game strategy—was easy to navigate, visually appealing, and aligned with the excitement that cricket fans crave.
SuperCric offers multiple gameplay modes including Quick Play, Play-by-Play, Tournaments, and Multiplayer challenges, each with its own unique design considerations. My role was to ensure that these modes were not just functional, but also provided a cohesive and engaging user experience. Whether a user is quickly managing their team in Quick Play or strategizing over multiple games in Tournament mode, the UI needed to support their decisions seamlessly and enhance their overall enjoyment of the game.
In this project, the challenge was to design an interface that could handle a wealth of information—such as player statistics, live match updates, and in-depth analytics—without overwhelming the user. The final design balances a feature-rich environment with a clean and vibrant aesthetic that resonates with cricket enthusiasts. The outcome is a dynamic, user-friendly platform that has significantly improved user engagement and satisfaction.
1. Generic Gameplay: From selecting teams, toss, arranging squad, to strategizing bowling and batting, all essential aspects of cricket gameplay are integrated across every mode. Comprehensive analytics tools allow users to assess performance and adjust strategies dynamically.
2. Quick Play:Short, fast-paced matches designed for users who want to enjoy a quick cricket session without the commitment of a full game.
3. Play-by-Play: An in-depth mode where users can make decisions at every crucial moment, providing a highly strategic and interactive experience.
4. Tournament:
A mode where users can participate in or create their own tournaments, managing teams through multiple stages to win the championship.
5. Multiplayer:
Challenge friends or other users in real-time multiplayer matches, offering a competitive edge to the fantasy cricket experience (This was never integrated as release was shelved during Covid-19 pandemic).
Balancing a feature-rich interface with a clean design, ensuring real-time updates without overwhelming the user, and creating a design that adapts well to different screen sizes and devices were the primary challenges faced during the development of SuperCric’s UI.
Positive feedback highlighted the app’s ease of use and visual appeal. The redesigned UI significantly contributed to a 30% increase in user retention and engagement, reflecting the success of the design choices made.
User feedback played a critical role in refining SuperCric’s design, highlighting the delicate balance between functionality and aesthetics. SuperCric’s UI design effectively merges functionality with visual excitement, delivering an engaging and seamless fantasy cricket experience.
