Designing the Buffers
Alongside win animations, the new game mode also required a design for progression buffers, visual meters that fill up as coins or chips fall. Once filled, these trigger the corresponding win animation.
➡️ Communicate real-time progress clearly without clutter
➡️ Align visually with the game’s coin physics
➡️ Reinforce anticipation through motion and pacing
The buffers became a core part of the game’s feedback loop, encouraging players to engage more deeply with the mechanics.
