Description: Kok Batay is a betting game inspired by cockfights using the mechanics of a flight simulator game like Aviator. It can be visually captivating and culturally relevant, provided that sensitivities and traditions are respected. Below is the guide for UX/UI design and visuals that align with the vision for Kok Batay, offering an engaging gaming experience: 1. Core Concept: Replace the airplane with two animated roosters (Kok Batay fighters) engaged in a duel. The multiplier increases as the fight progresses, representing the rise in "odds" or "winnings" over time. The "crash" in the original game translates to one rooster falling, signaling the end of the betting round. 2. Visual Elements: Theme and Atmosphere: Recreate the ambiance of a traditional Haitian cockfighting gagon (ring) with a circular setup and an animated crowd in the background. Integrate Haitian cultural motifs—wood carvings, vibrant colors, and typical regional patterns. Roosters (Main Characters): Design roosters with distinct personalities and appearances (various feather colors, combat stances, and possible accessories). Add smooth animations for their movements (pecking, wing flapping, charging) as the multiplier grows. Progression Indicator: Replace the flight line from Aviator with a dynamic intensity bar or combat tension indicator that shows the escalation of the duel. The "multiplier" can visually increase with flying feathers or growing excitement from the crowd. 3. User Interface (UI): Main Screen Layout: Center: Animation of the cockfight, with the two contenders clearly visible in the duel. Top/Side: Display of the multiplier (large and dynamic, with dramatic effects as it rises). Bottom: Betting controls: Place a Bet: Clear, accessible buttons for wager amounts. Cash Out: An attractive and prominent button that becomes more tempting as the multiplier grows. Visual Indicators: Add sound effects like crowd cheers, rooster cries, and drum rolls to heighten the tension. Use light effects or animations when a player "cashes out" or wins a big prize. Background Music: Integrate rhythmic and percussive Haitian music for authentic immersion. 4. User Experience (UX): Before the Game: Players choose their wager and bet amount. Option to select a "favorite" rooster (to create personal investment). During the Game: The fight begins with dynamic interaction between the roosters. A tension bar can indicate how close the round is to ending. Players watch the multiplier rise while deciding when to "cash out." End of Game: If a player does not "cash out" before the losing rooster falls, the screen displays a "CRASH" animation. Winners see a celebratory animation (e.g., the victorious rooster crowing proudly). 5. Cross-Platform Responsiveness: Ensure the design is responsive for mobile (portrait mode) and desktop (larger visuals). Integrate touch-friendly controls for mobile devices. 6. Additional Features: Customization: Allow players to unlock or select different roosters, backgrounds, or ring designs. Leaderboard: Display top players based on winnings. Community Integration: Add social features like "watch parties" or live group betting. 7. Ethical Considerations: While the concept pays homage to a cultural tradition, it’s important to respect sensitivities around animal welfare. You should: GAME CONCEPT INSPO: THE IMAGE I ATTACHED IS JUST example of concept but can look different
