pickledseacat (octocurio) -- good model landing pages

a collection by cnmne · last updated 2024-08-06 20:12:01

from u/pickledseacat's post: I put together a collection of well designed itch.io game pages you can use for inspiration/ideas

> If you'd like a more visual representation (scrolling gifs and so forth) I've put the list here on my website, but I've also listed them all below. I'll keep updating my page with more if it's something people are really interested in.

> Some of these might fall outside of the "well designed" category, but have nifty ideas so I've included them anyway.

> Kind of got inspired to do this after seeing some terrible pages. Some of these have custom CSS (but nothing crazy), and there are a bunch of stock ones that look great just from having good fonts and colours.

unfortunately their website is a dead link.

games no longer accessible:

  • Shark Lake Fisherman - A very simple page with a blended gif that shows off the gameplay well.
  • PRiO - Page really fits the theme of the game with nice colourful page breaks.

good use of colours and a neat page border

Adventure

Looks exactly like the game. The control mapping icons are really well done. Could do with video/gifs of gameplay.

Action
Play in browser
Added Aug 06, 2024 by cnmne

The game is playable in the browser. The colours and background of the page make it feel like the page is an extension of the game.

Strategy

Unique and fitting art for the description, border, and arrangement of screenshots/gifs. Description gets to the point.

Impactful colours and banner, though it’s a bit too large. I don’t usually like artsy descriptions but this one for some reason felt right. Nice header fonts.

Adventure

Great banner, really weird combination of font colours which fits the game well and is memorable, but also readable.

Simulation

Simple aesthetic with a bunch of blended gifs throughout.

An impactful banner (though too large I think), nice colours.

Puzzle
Added Aug 06, 2024 by cnmne

Great aesthetic that fits the game, but not a very helpful description. It could also use some gameplay gifs/video.

Other
Added Aug 06, 2024 by cnmne

Good title font, background, overall colours, and readability. Description is a bit weird, but fits the game.

Shooter

Nifty gif for the title that blends into the rest of the page. All the info as soon as you enter (though admittedly info is sparse).

Adventure
Added Aug 06, 2024 by cnmne

Overall a well designed page that feels very much like the game itself; nice fonts, blended gifs, mysterious text etc.

Shooter
Added Aug 06, 2024 by cnmne

Just a very functional page. Straight to the point description, video above the fold. Though the banner could be a bit smaller.

Action

Just a really simple minimalist design.
