Designed a wheel that when "spun" would animate and land on a prize determined by an odds engine
An extremely fun but challenging project, I worked closely with the Fold design team on the look and animations of the prize wheel. Upon spinning the wheel by simply pressing a button on stage, the Unity application makes an API call to a backend API. This API would lookup the quantity available and odds weights of each prize. The API then returns the prize that's been won. When the game receives the response, the wheel spins a few times and then slows to land on the prize won. A popup comes up with the full prize description and confetti. The big prize was a full bitcoin so the odds had to work perfectly. In the video, you can see the big winner at Pacific Bitcoin.
