Odyssey by UPMC
A mobile wellness app for UPMC health-plan holders — a virtual coach and daily check-ins to build healthy habits that last.
Overview
In collaboration with UPMC, Schell Games designed and developed Odyssey, a mobile app built to help UPMC health-plan holders start and stay on a wellness journey toward better health.
The app includes a virtual coach that provides helpful messages and tips every time the user checks in. Co-designed with doctors and health professionals, it helps users view their daily trends, avoid setbacks, and develop healthy habits that last.
My Role
Odyssey was my first project at Schell Games, where I was part of the engineering team. We built powerful UI tools that let artists and designers freely create the massive amount of UI and text in the app — a system we called "Widgets." Art and Design were fully empowered to build and test new screens without needing an engineer.
I built a number of Widgets and helped maintain, expand, and debug the entire experience. I worked primarily in C#, and a large amount of my work was integrating with and extending Unity's UI toolset as the team needed more features.
