What is YanKenPon?

YanKenPon is like the usual rock paper scissors but in AR with your own hand. Contains three epic decorations: Sky, Torii and Orion.

  • Sky. It is inspired by the sky, with Greek columns on a sea of ​​clouds.
  • Torii. I needed something Japanese style, since I quite like it. For this reason I made a corridor of Toriis and a hand of jade.
  • I wanted to have a space setting (I love space). For this I built a scene with a big alien planet and some asteroids floating around.

Inspiration

I like to play typical games in which practically nothing is needed. I saw the opportunity to be able to carry out a rock-paper-scissors in AR and I have done it.

What it does

To play you only have to place your hand in front of the rear camera of the mobile and make the movement you want. Remember that you are competing against the hand you see in front of you.

How we built it

For the realization of this lens I have used: 3dsmax, Cinema4d, Substance Painter, Substance Designer, Photoshop, Illustrator and Ableton Live.

Challenges we ran into

Sequencing the scenes has been quite a challenge for me. It's my 6th lens on Snapchat and I've had to learn 80% of the techniques that i applied in this lens in Lens Studio. Normally I write only code, but joining this with split scripts has been a big challenge.

Lens Roadmap

If I were able to monetize this lens, It could put brand datails in the sky, or specific objects of that brand in the environment. Or directly generate a new environment for that brand. It would also be nice to add custom hand textures (our tracked hand).

What's next for YanKenPon Lens Lensathon

Maybe I'll provide multiplayer in real time, so the experience would be more realistic.
