SUMMARY
As for user interface, simple and bright colours are chosen with the main carrier of image and graphics, which can lead users to execute tasks more positively. What we should pay more attention to is users’ mentally negative and passive feeling in task execution. That is mainly resulted from the mechanical reminders ( such as clock-like reminder and tension-creating countdown.) and the failure of tasks for some objective reasons( it is possible to make users feel guilty and frustrated.)As for mechanism, to offer them different feelings of accomplishment and satisfaction and make them realise that make-up tasks are a part of normal tasks but not a punishment. All in all, focusing on user psychology is very important.
As for interaction, “lightness” is the keyword in the push-in or push-out of interface and show mode, and simple operations like “throw” and “cast” are mainly adopted in interaction.
