User research + new art exploration: conducted target-user research (Feb 14) and a new-version playtest (Feb 15). Findings showed strong interest in investing while credit cards felt most connected to daily life, so we kept investing but reduced its dominance and embedded a credit-card risk/feedback mechanism; refined budgeting buckets and the “This Month’s News” driver. Art-wise, we explored a refreshed Afrofuturism direction with new references, moving away from graffiti-covered faces toward a more modern, future-facing style that’s also more parent-friendly.
