Botaki
Educational Game
pitch
Botaki, a magical kids' learning experience, merges real plant care with a virtual companion. Via the Magic Totem, kids engage with their animated Botaki avatar, embodying the plant's spirit. As a freelance collaborator, I enriched the existing universe, diversifying avatars, crafting weather-condition-linked backgrounds, and enhancing plant-health UI elements. Through dynamic animations, I breathed life into the Botaki avatar, elevating the overall experience and fostering a delightful and educational connection between children and their botanical friends.
