John Solimine created the stunning illustrations and Andy Hullinger penned this new classic. Small Planet designed and developed the experience.
MY ROLE
iOS app vs. iBook
After the success of our iOS app, Dragon Brush, I adapted it for the iBook format.
I reimagined assets and animations to fit within the limitations of HTML and CSS animations. I edited front-end code, creating CSS animations while also designing new assets for iBook.
