<p>Boonty is a leader in the downloadable casual video games space since its creation in 2001. The Windows Media Center Edition web application allows users to browse the MCE games catalog, view game information, download and even play most of the game <em>using only the remote control</em>. I designed the user interface graphics and specified the behavior.</p>

<p>All Boonty games have a trial version, which uses a &#8220;nag screen&#8221; for game information and activation. This essential part of the purchase process was in need for a redesign. I wrote the functional specifications, created the activation workflow, designed the new UI and coded the embedded web pages. Part of this project, I conducted a focus group that had involved the entire company. I created the test scenario, supervised the test then aggregated and analyzed the results.</p>

<p>A video games by subscription offer from Boonty that unlocks a number of games every month. I wrote the functional specification, designed the game DRM screens and the web site for the service.</p>

<p>The BoontyBox is a games jukebox application. It indexes the games on a user&#8217;s computer, fetches game information and news, handles DRM and manages the game download and installation.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve wrote the functional specifications, designed the user experience, managed the project development and wrote the documentation.</p>
