info
Explore the Land of Me, an interactive adventure through wood, lake, glen and cave with Buddy Boo and his friends. Built as a downloadable cross-platform app for the desktop, iPad, and the Blackberry Playbook as well as a DVD-Rom, with in-app purchases to expand children's learning horizons further, this new, fantastical world actively encourages children and adults to play together.
The Land of Me is being distributed by Ladybird Books.
our role
Less Rain has been actively involved during the concept and specification phases, working with Made in Me to define what the Land of Me would become a year later.
As a production partner, we covered design, technical direction and software development, stitching together Made in Me's inviting illustrations, animation, sounds and words to create a technically challenging piece of software that has pushed the boundaries of what Above Air can do. Recent awards include a BIMA gold in "Media and Entertainment", European Design Awards silver and an Adobe MAX as well as A BAFTA nomination.
tech
Rather than developing The Land of Me multiple times for all the available platforms, we only have one codebase built in Adobe Air. We have recently published Storytime, one of The Land of Me chapters on the iPad, with more chapters to come.
