Project: Get Games Going

Overview

The problem:

Many UH students want to relax and enjoy themselves after long study sessions. Playing games with some friends is a fun way to spend a night, but with so many people having different and busy schedules it's difficult to get a group together.

The solution:

The Get Games Going application allows students to login and create a profile indicating their schedule, their taste in games, and their competivieness. Other users can leave comments on other's profiles to be reviewed by admins.

Mockup page ideas

• Landing Page
• User home page
• Browse users by their taste in games, competitivness, and schedule.

Use case ideas

• New user goes to landing page, logs in, gets home page, sets up profile
• Admin goes to landing page, logs in, gets home page, edits site.
• Browse users by their taste in games, competitivness, schedule, and sets up a session.

Beyond the basics

• Integration with gogole calendar to have sign ups for game nights.
• List games each person owns.
• Supports reviews of people, to be monitored by admins.
