Could Augmented Reality (AR) serve as a game platform in books? What kind of game design would work? How deep should the game design go?
The Little Mermaid is the brainchild of Mark Folkenberg, owner of Books & Magic. I helped Mark visualise his vision. ‘The Little Mermaid’ by Hans Christian Andersen is known worldwide and contains interesting visual settings. The AR book was released in 2017 and we proved that books with AR can in fact be a gaming platform.
Stephen Meldal Foged did all the 3D work, Jens Juul Jacobsen did the programming, David Filskov did the sound effects and Jonas Frederik composed the music.
Released: 2017
The book is available here.
