WaterlooSim

Inspiration

We love being waterloo students so much we had to turn it into a game.

What it does

You are a waterloo student, and you have many problems to overcome and goals to accomplish both IRL and in this game.

How we built it

We used react.js, planned to use CockroachDB to save user info, and store game information. Also used Co:here to generate dialogue with other virtual uwaterloo students.

Challenges we ran into

Implementing CockroachDB to store game and player data, designing a user-friendly UI, attempting to create a working front end.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We made a basic version of the frontend and implemented various locations and story plotlines for the user.

What we learned

How to use Web apps to create a game, rather than just a plain website.

What's next for WaterlooSim

Currently in alpha, hoping to release beta soon!
