EyeLanguage 90s — The Intense Love-Stare ChallengeInspired by the psychology of romantic eye contact and the unspoken language of love, this lens gamifies human emotions through an intense eye-gaze survival loop, wrapped in a nostalgic 90s retro cinematic aesthetic.
The Gameplay Loop:
The game tests the user's emotional control. A retro-styled character appears on screen, locking eyes with the user. To win, the user must maintain deep, intense, romantic eye contact while love-themed obstacles try to distract them. If you blink, look away, or break character by laughing, you lose. A "Love-Meter" tracks how long you can sustain the intense connection.Snapchat Tools Used: Leverages Snap’s advanced Eye Tracking and Blink Detection capabilities to monitor micro-movements of the eyes in real-time. It uses Face Gen / ML Effects to give the lens a dreamy, vintage 90s romance movie overlay, reacting dynamically to the intensity of the user's gaze.
Spotlight & Viral Design:
Built using hyper-optimized, lightweight visual assets for instant loading. The deeply personal yet hilariously challenging nature of maintaining a "romantic stare" under pressure creates highly shareable, high-emotion content perfect for driving viral trends on Snapchat Spotlight.

I decided to be the client this round to focus on increasing my leads.
Wanted to test out gamified/interesting activities related to my products and services that could help pick someone's interest like other interactive ads. Decided to make a reflection based activity as that is what I have been my recent focus.
The goal was to keep things simple and clean, and to build something that would not require alot of upkeep. Only three main pages, along with CTAs on each page, and leading to the other pages that build pathways to progressive action, including reaching out to me.
Reflect and Act Challenge is made so that a user would get actually use out of it regardless if they be come a solid lead. I also made it with the pragmatic reality that credits run out, and so the base functions still work.
Smart pivot being your own client Korbin! Love the reflection-based lead magnet idea - "Sit with the question. Leave with an action." is such a strong hook for your products/services. Gamified + introspective = perfect combo for Base44!
I had an Etsy shop. I abandoned it because of the listings.
Making the products was the fun part. Then came the title, the description, all 13 tags and the fees, every single time. After a while I stopped opening the shop. So I designed Pip. You drop in your mockups and Pip writes the listing from your own shop data, in your voice. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
I also wanted to prove that a SaaS tool does not have to feel like work. Pip starts as an egg and hatches into a form that matches what you sell. Each day it picks five small jobs from your stats, like "96 people opened this listing and nobody bought, add a short video", and finishing them earns XP, levels and a streak tied to real sales.
What I focused on:
- One clear next step. My first dashboard looked fun but was hard to use. The redesign leads with today's missions, and each one says what to do, why it matters and what it is worth.
- Trust first. The seller approves every draft, sees the listing fee before publishing, and Pip never asks for their password.
- Playful, but calm. The pixel egg, the Pip family and the grass strip carry the personality. The interface around them stays clean enough to use every day.
