Adventure Academy is an MMO where players go on quests, many of which are learning games. I was asked to create a team to build the discreet learning games. We created a variety of games and styles to cover a range of learning topics. Each game has original concepts, characters, and art.
To accelerate quality and time to market, I created small cross-functional teams. Using a hybrid Kanban method that tracked major game stages, milestones could be met within 1 or 2 sprints. The teams enjoyed the autonomy and that they could make most any call within their team to get to the next stage quickly.
The teams generated quality game content very quickly.
