Playable on smartphones are two prototype mini-games from Consume Me by designer Jenny Jiao Hsia. Prototypes are a way for designers to test out gameplay and design ideas early in the development process. In Wobble Yoga the player must enact the poses highlighted, and in Food Tetris arrange a meal on one plate, balancing the calorie count and potential for hunger. Each game examines a preoccupation in Hsia’s life relating to her issues with body image, but imagined in a humorous and cute way.
