Steam Winter Sale

 

STEAM HOLIDAY SALE 2013

To coincide with Steam's release in Australia and Brazil, the annual Winter Sale decided to go down a different path - rename the sale to 'Holiday Sale' and make two completely different interfaces, depending on what hemisphere the user is in.

You can view all assets that were created at Steam Trading Card wikia.

NORth and south

For those in the northern hemisphere who were experiencing Winter, classic snow globes were created for each day. Meanwhile, the southern hemisphere saw a humorous take a summer globe.

Scrolling to the bottom of each page would show the opposite hemispheres globe upside with the interior content of the globe flopped to the bottom.

To add to the fun, we created a special combo that users could put into their controllers to flip the globe and swap out themes.

 

sale gamification

To support the previously created Steam Trading Cards, a typical gamification aspect was created, which included collecting trading cards, emoticons, backgrounds, and badges.
