GameSessions

Designing and developing an online store for PC game subscriptions

GamesSessions was a PC gaming service that allowed users to trial games before buying in-game and continuing to play via Steam. The company brought me on to design the web pages for their new subscription based gaming service, “Gems”. For a monthly fee users would gain access to a library of games (think Netflix but for PC games). Each month big name games, such as Overcooked 2 and Control, would be rotated in for users to download and play.

I produced a design, prototype and then developed pages for the store front and landing. I was given some wireframes created by a user researcher along with some branding assets (typefaces and logos) and some first-draft copy to include on the pages. Initially I was required to design the landing page for the new service.

GameSessions needed me to design web pages for:

  • Subscription landing page
  • GameSessions game store
  • A new home page
  • A new about page

They wanted to take these designs to the GamesCom conference that was happening in a few weeks’ time to present to potential investors. I then developed the front-end (ASP MVC, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) for these pages and worked with the back-end developers to integrate these.
