The Frame Score concept is clever. Wrapping a Figma journey into something shareable and comparable gives it a life beyond just a portfolio piece. Did you build the scoring logic yourself or pull from Figma usage data?

Hey there! I'm new to Contra, and I've decided to take part in the Config Makeathon by Figma š
I'm building Trazo: an app to train your creativity
These days we all have AI tools at our fingertips that boost our work ā but what changes the result is the creativity you bring to them. And I believe that can be trained.
Here's how it works:
1. You get an ambiguous shape ā a blob, a stone, a smudge. Something that isn't anything yet.
2. You look at it, rotate it, flip it around until something appears. A face, a bird, a wave ā whatever you see.
3. You draw on top and turn it into that. You give it a name.
4. And at the end, the reveal: it shows you what everyone else saw in that same shape. Same blob, a hundred different things.
Being creative isn't about knowing how to draw. It's about seeing differently. And that you can train.
More coming soon.

FrameOrbit ā Config Makeathon Submission šøš
Sharing second project for the Config Makeathon: FrameOrbit.
https://cedar-thaw-04755246.figma.site/
Project published to the community.
FrameOrbit is a playful camera canvas experience where taking photos feels more spatial, visual, and alive.
The idea started from a simple question:
What if captured photos didnāt disappear into a hidden gallery, but stayed around your camera as part of the experience?
In FrameOrbit, the camera view sits in the center of a soft canvas. Every time the user captures a photo, it instantly appears as a framed image around the camera. As more photos are taken, the canvas starts to build a visual orbit of moments around the live camera view.
Users can:
Capture photos directly from the center camera frame
See each image appear instantly around the canvas
Apply different photo styles like Normal, Noir, Warm, Cool, Vivid, Fade, Retro, and Neon
Drag photos around the canvas
Tap any photo to open it in a cinematic full-screen viewer
Move between images using previous/next navigation
Save all captured images or reset the canvas
The goal was to make photo capturing feel less like a utility and more like a small creative ritual, a live memory board that grows with every shot.
Built with Figma Make, I focused on creating a polished interactive prototype with a soft visual system, floating photo cards, smooth viewer experience, and a simple flow that can be understood in seconds:
Capture ā frame appears ā build your orbit ā explore your moments.
FrameOrbit turns the camera into a canvas. āØ

Make sense
For the Config Makeathon, I've built Interdimensional Snake, an experimental game that blends beautiful mathematics with design.
I built it to expose more people to mathematical ideas, and to show they can be experienced visually in a way that's genuinely fun.
It's a reimagining of the classic game Snake, but in 3D, with two modes:
Escher - crawl across all six faces of a cube, slipping through wormholes as gravity reorients around you.
Metamorph - survive on dynamically morphing topologies (sphere, torus, Klein bottle, Mƶbius band, etc), it's tougher, but the more visually striking of the two.
The game has one technical core wearing 5 different design identities that can be swapped at runtime using cool transition effects of your liking (just press "T" on your keyboard). Check it out!
Built using Figma, Figma Make and Figma MCP.
