According to a Microsoft Study, “84% of respondents agreed gaming has positively impacted
their mental health over the past year, while 71% said gaming helped them feel less isolated.”
Mind Central helps people that are dealing with mental health issues in a fun way through
innovative gaming. Some of the app’s features are journaling, mood tracking with games
tailored to responses, chatrooms, a place to blog and even access to professionally
licensed therapists.
Mind Central helps members of the gaming community to use games as a positive way to
deal with stress and anxiety. The app connects members with each other, professionals and
healthy coping techniques through gaming and expression of one’s feelings. This project
focused on an iterative process of user interface design and visual branding. Merch design,
such as posters and t-shirts helps build community engagement.
