Ever wondered why some game interfaces feel intuitive, while others leave you completely lost?

Every game gives players information. Health, objectives, inventory, maps, abilities, resources.
But deciding what to show, when to show it and how players interact with it is where UI and UX design come in.

On October 28, join Roxana Pătrașcu, UX/UI Designer @ Gameloft Bucharest, for a hands-on workshop where you’ll look at game interfaces from a designer’s perspective and create your own first HUD.

No previous design experience is needed.

What will you do during the workshop?

You’ll analyse examples from games you already know, learn how to separate UI from UX and explore the decisions designers make when building an interface.

Then you’ll put those ideas into practice by sketching your own HUD based on a real game design constraint.

All you need is a pen and some curiosity.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to:

🎮 Distinguish UI from UX
🔍 Identify the main UI elements in a game
💡 Evaluate what works and what could be improved in a game interface
✏️ Sketch a functional HUD for a given game concept
💬 Give and receive constructive design feedback

From player to designer

The goal isn’t to create a polished interface in a few hours.

It’s to start understanding why game interfaces are designed the way they are, how they influence the player experience and how designers turn gameplay information into something players can quickly understand.

If you enjoy games and are curious about Game Design, UX/UI or working in the games industry, this workshop is a good place to start.
