We are delighted to share with you our adventure at one of the biggest drift events in the world. It was a huge dose of inspiration, excitement and support for our local drivers.



On the 15th and 16th of September, the Grand Finals of the Drift Masters European Championship 2023 took place at the PGE National Stadium in Warsaw. On Saturday, our team had the opportunity to be part of this spectacular show.


The event brought together over 50 talented drivers from all over the world. Our team not only watched this extraordinary battle but also cheered on our Polish drifters as they gave their best on the track. One of our compatriots, Paweł Korpuliński, took third place in this prestigious competition, something we are very proud of.


Participating in this event has given us a huge dose of inspiration that we intend to use in the development of Japanese Drift Master. We can't wait to bring that excitement and dynamism to our game!

Today, we're taking you on a walkthrough of the interface development process for Japanese Drift Master. The UI (User Interface) is an extremely important element, so we want to share with you the design choices and challenges we have encountered during its creation.


[h2]Essentials[/h2]
It is important to remember that a game is, first and foremost, a product to be used. So when designing the interface, usability comes first. We want players to be able to get to the place or option they want quickly and efficiently, without being taken out of the rhythm and atmosphere of the game.


[h2]Inspirations[/h2]
When designing the JDM interface, we drew a lot of inspiration from Japanese pop culture, including anime and manga, as well as the extensive drift and car culture. We want our production to reflect the true atmosphere of the Cherry Blossom Country and provide you with as much fun as possible.


[h2]Challenges[/h2]
The options in the game are very extensive and have a lot of settings. We can configure, buy, sell cars, and we have many modes to choose from. The same goes for the menus. We were challenged by the variety of options and yet, we wanted everything to be consistent and clear.


[h2]Cooperation[/h2]
In graphic design, it is crucial to maintain good communication between several departments. The UX department, which deals with usability, passes this information on to the designer, who combines it into a single, coherent graphical style. A smooth flow of information and an understanding of how the graphics work in the game engine will ensure that production runs smoothly and without unnecessary misunderstandings. ;)


We hope that this behind-the-scenes look at the interface design has given you a few tidbits of information and insight into the work we put into Japanese Drift Master. If you want to keep up to date with the latest news, join us on Discord, where you can communicate directly with us and share your insights and ideas. It's a great place for true drift fans! Also, don't forget to add JDM to your Steam wishlist so you don't miss any updates.

Thank you for your support and for being part of our community. See you in the next devlog!
