Would you play?
I'm currently working on an MVP game that utilises your own content from a well known social media platform / photo application as part of its game interface.
MVP Goal(s)
- Web based Responsive UI across major / popular mobile browsers
- Interface with well known platforms API
- Privacy-Wise: Photo content cached temporarily to aid game UI, cached photo(s) then destroyed when user or game session ends
- Adhere to GDPR best practices
I think for a more representative poll result you should describe what the actual game is about :)
thanks for the feedback @dennis_zoma i'm going to do a follow up poll with a more polished pitch and details about the game flow and UX
Hi guys, I've recently deployed the first iteration of my MVP into production, shuzzle.me is the name of the app. It is somewhat of a challenging tile sliding game
and a new way to have fun with your Instagram pictures.
You can try it out here -- >> https://www.shuzzle.me
Note: you will need to login with your Instagram credentials in order to access the app
Also if you have the time, please leave some feedback via this google form - > https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeqpFyAoTnQHqYQBIJX81TAo_QdsEX5tu04a1RDEFIQXX0ukQ/viewform
I think depending on the concept of the game people could be interested to play or not. But your description lacks any gameplay elements. Maybe try to pitch an interesting game loop for a "better" poll result. I think right now people only see "you'll use my data" and with all the privacy concerns around the web it's not very attractive.
@huguntu thanks for the feedback. appreciate it. I'll do a follow up post taking your feedback into consideration
To be honest, the question leaves too many questions open to say 'yes'.
Is it a game or an app? If it's a game, what type of game?
If it's an app, what type of app? What will happen with the photos (privacy-wise)? etc.
Thanks for feedback @chrisma, so the app will initially be a web based game with responsive UI. Think puzzle slider type vibes. Privacy-wise , due to the platforms API restrictions that the app interfaces with, you will only be able to play your own photos. Right now, the photos that make up part of the game are cached and then destroyed when either that game session has finished or when the player exits the app or log out of their session
In this case, I'd rather say yes :)

yay ;)
