Giovanni AngeliniCreative Director & Product Designer · Malta
About

11 years.
One obsession.

I'm a Creative Director and Product Designer who has spent 11 years inside iGaming — not on the periphery, but at the core. Building the brands players remember and the products they can't stop using.

My edge: I move across the full spectrum — from brand strategy and visual identity to UX/UI, prototyping and product management. I don't hand off. I ship.

Since 2024 I've embedded AI deep into my creative workflow — Claude, Veo 3, Seadreams, FigmaMake — not as a shortcut, but as a force multiplier. Same craft, faster shipping.

Monaco Jack
UX/UI + Product Design
2025
Monaco Jack
UX/UI Designer

Overview

Monaco Jack is a gaming platform combining casino, promotions and gamified content. The redesign transformed fragmented navigation into a fluid, guided, highly engaging ecosystem — focused on clarity, discovery and retention.

The Challenge

Critical structural issues: poor navigation, low visibility of high-value features (VIP, Tournaments), visual inconsistency, unoptimised mobile, and no product narrative. Rich in features — impossible to explore.

Design Strategy

Rebuilt the platform around the user and their key interaction moments — introducing quick access to core sections, a coherent scalable visual system, a strong gamification layer, and truly functional mobile-first UX.

Key Deliverables

Side menu redesign · New visual system & brand identity · VIP Club experience · Tournament redesign · Sign-up flow optimisation · User profile & dropdown navigation · Fun Zone redesign · CRM & email system.

Outcome

Monaco Jack transformed from a content-rich platform to a user-experience-driven one — more coherent, navigable, mobile-friendly and engaging. A structural redesign of identity and user behaviour.

Final Thought

Not just a UI restyling. Every interaction was made clearer, faster and more engaging — with the mascotte Jack becoming a recurring narrative element throughout the experience.

Summary

Narrative-driven VIP loyalty system — Karate Belt progression from white to black belt, each rank tied to real rewards, exclusive missions and personalised CRM campaigns.
