In support of Lycra’s presence at the Yo’Hood fashion tradeshow in Shanghai, we developed a fun, interactive H5 game that showcases the brand’s cutting-edge fabric technology and product materials.

The H5 game was aligned with the brand’s tradeshow tagline of “Move to Your Own Rhythm.” Game players were tasked with creating their own pop band complete with unique songs and dance routines via intuitive inputs for movement, sound, beats, vocals, and even apparel / styling details.

The pop-band characters were playfully (and unexpectedly) reimagined and modernized as classic Roman sculptures. The statues are stiff and stationary, but once outfitted in Lycra apparel, they come alive and “get moving to their own rhythm.”

In-game controls allow players to customize their pop group as they see fit. The controls trigger musical and outfit changes: jeans, leggings, sporty tops, and swimwear come on and off in tandem with the addition and subtraction of musical elements. Once the player is happy with how everything looks and sounds, the game generates a sharable poster summarizing their personality based on their in-game choices. Tapping the band members on the final poster also opens product pages where players / friends can easily shop their favorite outfits.

The playfulness and whimsical humor of the game’s design, animation, and music all come together to showcase the distinctive brand spirit of Lycra.

In addition to the H5 game, we also developed the on-screen content inside Lycra’s Yo’Hood booth, which linked brand videos with the Roman stature character motif and our H5 game.
