The Kimberly-Clark Cottonelle Puppy is a playful interactive desktop puppy which is updated with new animations and brand messages which has been deployed in several international versions.
A feature unique to Windows desktop applications is the ability to put interactive windowless animated ScreenMate characters right on a user’s desktop. These brand stewards are interactive and can be updated with new behaviors over time. ScreenMates can be a part of any branded desktop application, and often represent a fun and playful aspect of the BDA which can help drive both downloads and interactions.
Characters can either be hand-animated by our in-house team, or clients can provide OTOlabs with source alpha-channel animations.
