With the brand’s strong focus on fun sports and extreme experiences, we tasked four teams of emerging Swiss game designers with creating small and entertaining sports games for Red Bull’s website. In addition, each team would be featured by Red Bull on their portal.
The project includes the following four games:
- Bike Knights: A two player jousting game with bikes. By Sonja Böckler and Philipp Stern.
- Flip Frog: A rhythm game with a breakdancing frog. By Benjamin Andermatt and Eric Schärrer.
- KayakKING: A Kayaking race with challenging obstacles. By Markus Rossé and Andreas Halter.
- Trick Snap: A BMX rhythm game where players have to shoot the best pictures of their BMX hero. By Yannic Hungerbühler.
My Responsibility: Producer, Project Manager, Technical Integration and Coordination. I was responsible for heading the game production from recruitment to delivery. We invited eight junior teams to game concepts which were to follow the creative brief developed jointly with the client. Red Bull chose four games to be implemented. I ensured that teams had all the resources to create and helped them follow the creative brief. Over the course of six months, all games were sucessfully delivered and published by Red Bull.
(Note: The games are currently not online, we are working on it)
