  • Our client's vision was something so funny than recent successful quiz games, like QuizUp and Trivia Crack. In the other hand we had a small budget, that made it impossible to develop multiplayer features. Then we took care of the small detais of art, audio and gameplay to deliver a funny game. In the end, we really laughed with the animations of falling.
