Directors of the Extraordinary offer immersive experiences, simulations, events and fun education programs - where participants must solve problems together to advance. The Klyp team have experience building large scale gaming platforms, and Directors of the Extraordinary wanted to harness this knowledge to take their experiences to the next level. Together, we combined eclectic ideas with real-world mysteries; then enhanced these experiences with technology.  The results were extraordinary!

The Challenge

App Package Updates

An ongoing challenge throughout the app development phase of this project was the evolving compatibility between different plugins and packages. Initially, the packages sped up the development process, as they contained pre-coded features which could be reused. However, sporadically these packages would be silently updated. Also, some packages which the team intended to incorporate were actually a newer version compared to the others. As these compatibility issues had the potential to break parts of the application, an ongoing management plan was implemented.

The App

Unlimited Gaming Opportunities

The app was built to communicate with an online backend service which would enable Directors of the Extraordinary to create a virtually endless collection of varied game experiences! This means that a diverse range of content can be created from an online source, then launched with a custom design, plus smart device functionality. The ability to perform online editing and showcase the technology on mobile devices offers unlimited gaming opportunities and resale potential.

The Outcome

Experiences Converge

We created a gaming application where physical and digital experiences converge; establishing a heightened sense of realism at Directors of the Extraordinary. We incorporated a number of customisable components within a single application to generate multiple gaming scenarios. There are now countless opportunities to expand upon the company’s existing repertoire of adventures. So it’s game-on for Directors of the Extraordinary - visit their website to get in on the action!
