Zim and Zou

This is a fantastic little paper crafted game boy. It was created entirely using coloured card, glue and scissors. I think the effort gone into designing it is clearly evident, and the colours chosen are vivid and enticing. The designers also assembled another variation, but using the traditional light grey colour scheme. I personally think the brightly coloured one is much more interesting. The game which is shown 'on screen' is tetris and even though it looks like it really is that small, visual trickery is to be accounted for. What the designers did is construct a large scale tetris scenario, with purely paper of course, then photographed it and used photoshop to manipulate it so it looks as though it is really on screen. Even this product may have no serious meaning behind its development, I think if you take it for purely what it is, a but of fun, the successes are clearly evident. I would definitely consider designing something like this in the future for my own bit of fun.
