Description

A passion turned into a side project. Designing and building a mobile game that makes learning the flags & countries of the world fun.

Context

Over lockdown I became fasciated with the flags of the world. I found a great desktop quiz to learn them all. I continually tried to find mobile games that replicated this specific quiz but I couldn't find any.


I researched, designed and developed my own flag game called 'Flag Pro', I focused on improving the web quiz I loved and adding game mechanics from the best games I could find.


This was a complete passion project, as of writing this the game is V3 on 'TestFlight', getting ready to be released.
