In this episode of Creative Mind, we dig a little bit deeper into the mechanics of gameplay, specifically the UI and UX, with Greg Eichholzer.

The UI/UX world has grown a lot in the last 10 years and it is one of the fastest growing segments in the digital industry. In this episode of the Creative Mind podcast, we sit down with Greg Eichholzer, who has worked on many games and developed a lot of interfaces, and he is going to share some great tips and tricks to help you develop a good UI UX platform for your game.

Greg most recently was Associate Art Director at RockYou, Inc. and previously was a Lead Artist at Kabam, Inc. He has animated game elements, illustrated, and designed UI for PC, web games, and mobile games. Notable games Greg has worked on include Dragons of Atlantis, The Godfather: Five Families, Kingdoms of Camelot, Marvel: United, The Fairly OddParents: Shadow Showdown, and Scooby-Doo! Case File #2: The Scary Stone Dragon.
