Let's draw. Animals

Hello! We are the Japanese development team "ReachMoon".
This time, we would like to introduce "Let's draw. Animals" that we produced.

"Let's draw. Animals" is an app that supports children's drawing.
This app is different from the general drawing app.
Unlike ordinary drawing tools, this app does not draw in the app.
To enjoy this app, you need to bring a piece of paper and a pen.
You can draw a cute animals by following the app.

Sorry. We really wanted to have a very nice piece of paper and pen for you, but that was difficult for us.
But we do provide a great app. I hope you enjoy it.

In addition to drawing animals, you can also enjoy the animal guessing quiz "who is it" in this app.
You should be the "facilitator" and give your children a guess.

I will tell you about the process of making this app.

How often do you face-to-face with your smartphone screen in a day?
How about children about this?
As is the case in Japan, the relationship between people and games and apps has become deeper these days.

Children's play has changed a lot these days compared to when we were children.
My kid is just playing with the app, so he won't play with me. I'm so sad.
My kid spends more time looking at the screen than his mother's face.
I'm worried about children who are just looking at the screen.

We need to get the kids back from the app!
But that's not easy. Because app is like an intimate lover to kids.
That's why I thought it would be possible to build a cooperative relationship rather than hostile to the app.
So, I came up with a drawing app that focuses on actually drawing on paper.

It is an app that displays how to draw animals with fun music.
Children can actually draw and play to make the relationship with the app even better.

There is one important thing.
If you want to improve the relationship between child and the app, you also need "your power".
Please be a "facilitator" when your child plays with this app.
The time spent with you will be important to your child in the future.
Spending time with a loved one will make your child bigger.

There are many animals in this app, but the names of the animals are not mentioned.
The app asks a lot of things, but the app doesn't have the answer.
Tell your child through the conversation.

The app we made is very good.
But it may lack humor. I hope you add your humor and have fun with your child.

Thinking about localization from the Japanese version to the world.

We have some concerns as we proceed with the localization of the English version.
This app was made for Japanese children.
Since the design of this app is Japanese, I think it may seem strange when viewed from a global perspective.

From the perspective of people in the area where the animals are actually close, the symbolized animals will feel strange.
Also, it is different from the realistic drawing that reproduces the profound atmosphere represented by American comics.

I think Japanese drawings are simpler and more symbolic than drawings in other cultures.
For example, Ukiyo-e. There is no shadow on the person, and the size of the eyes, nose, and mouth is unique.
For example, manga. Sometimes people are drawn with an unrealistic balance.
Like them, the drawing of this app also draws a picture by arranging each graphic part.
It's interesting to see how this drawing we provide feels to people in different cultures.
I hope this will make you interested not only in drawing near you, but also in drawing in Japan and other cultures.

Thank you and best regards,
ReachMoon
