“When I go into Velocity, I care more about information design than pretty looking UI. As long as I can find contents as quickly as possible, the better.”
Many users struggled navigating through pages to find the right content. We needed to find the best way to make their discovery experience easy and seamless.

For all its creativity, The Lost Landscapes was built on a foundation of existing intellectual property. On , the project's servers abruptly went down. The reason soon became clear: Big Blue Bubble (BBB), the official developer of My Singing Monsters , had intervened.
There is never a perfect design! We had a lot of positive feedbacks from our users with the redesign. Users were satisfied with cleaner UI and improved navigational experience.
