Pastel - Interview with the developer of a fantastic app

Did you have any prior development or coding experience?

Yes. I am a software developer and I love making games.

What was the most challenging aspect of developing mobile app?

The most challenging aspect of the game was to bring a balance between the possible user attention span and the fun factor of the game which required a lot of optimisation in regards to the wide age group targeted by the app.

An indie game developer from India striving to make fun and simple games with cool out-of-the-box concepts.

Name a few of your favorite apps and reason you love them.

Clash Royale is my all-time favourite. It is fun to play and presents you with a challenging scenario every game.

How long have you been working on this app?

Less than 2 months.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

The application is targeted for people especially kids who are looking forward to developing their mental agility and improve function in their day-to-day activities.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

My application is not the best in the market but I do think that keeping it rather simple and children-friendly all the while presenting a definite challenge is rather unique considering the type of game. The aesthetics of the app is also pleasant and navigation is extremely simple. There are no hidden complexities in the app and anybody can get on board the ship pretty quickly.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

In the near future, I wish to integrate a global leaderboard system where users can share their scores and performance graphs with other competitors. I would also like to see my app included in the educational curriculum of schools for children aspiring to improve their mental dexterity.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

Kindly share this app with your children/students. I believe they will highly benefit from it. Thank you very much.
