Caper is a platform for a new kind of family entertainment. Kids answer fully-animated ‘video calls’ from one our unique, charming characters, inviting them to get up off the sofa and get outside on an adventure! Funny, exciting stories, and creative activities makes Caper the ‘play-inspiration app parents never knew they needed’ - London Evening Standard.
Caper was conceived and founded by myself and colleagues Ben Geliher and Sara Perkins, with backing from Lego Ventures and Founders Factory. I was responsible for creating all of Caper's original IP, writing the scripts, modelling and animating 3D characters, researching and illustrating activities… basically everything visual or story-related.
App Intro Sequence
I created three characters as part of the Caper brand, and used them in this realtime clickthrough to explain the concept of the app. It's made in Unity using a combination of 2D and 3D animation.
Captain Redtail
Caper’s first and most-loved IP. Help Captain Redtail and his robot pal TikTik as they explore the galaxy.
Spellville
Join Holly Goodspell at her magic shop, the Wishmill, and help her deal with all kinds of weird and wonderful customers!
Wild Spies and more…
I have several Caper IPs in the pipeline, at various stages of development. Wild Spies should be launching soon! Here's a playthrough of the first episode:
Reception
Caper has been a featured app several times on Apple's app store, and has gotten great press and user reviews. We even got invited to a small tech showcase at 10 Downing Street, where Captain Redtail got Boris jogging on the spot!
