Behind the design

Small choices we made while building arrowVON, in our own words. Every one has snapshots on the making-of page.

One warm palette
The game lives in warm browns with a single orange. Popups, cards and buttons all draw from it, so a new screen feels like it always belonged.

Seen, not heard
Every background is quiet on purpose. The popup is the star, so the background only shows up when you look for it.

Six backgrounds, one pick
We built six looping backgrounds for the reward popup before choosing Royal Board for Pawn to King. Six more followed, made for the Vault and other screens.

Avatars that feel like you
Twelve simple arrow tiles in soft colours, so any of them looks good on a leaderboard. Frames are next: laurel, neon, halving ring and arrow orbit.

League, redesigned four times
The weekly League went through four rounds and fifteen layouts. Along the way we dropped the podium for ribbon rows.

Checked small, checked in the dark
Avatars and frames are tried at leaderboard-row size, and screens in both Dark and Light Mode, because that is how you will really see them.

Description

In one line

A free puzzle game about arrows in motion: clear the board, follow the flow.

In a paragraph

arrowVON is a free puzzle game about arrows in motion. Every level is a board of arrows, and finding the way through is the whole game. Hardcore mode gives you a few hearts, so every move counts, and gold arrows are worth points in the weekly league. Climb the league for coin rewards, spend coins in the Vault on board surfaces and arrow skins, and play to Dreadmarch, the game's original soundtrack. arrowVON is free to play on Windows and Linux, with iOS coming.
