Social_Justice_Motivation

Patriarchy
- "A cultural construct in which old, rich, white, straight, cisgender, able-bodied, christian men are valued more than minority groups.". "Special rights, advantages, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group."
Microaggression
- "Daily verbal, behavioural, or environmental indignities, whether intentional or unintentional, that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative prejudicial slights and insults toward any group."
- Explain Privilege to those who do not see it。Teacher tells students they are having a race and the winner recieves a prize. However, some students get a head start on this race:

(Video. ”Every statement I’ve made has nothing to do with anything any of you have done. We all know these people up here have a better opportunity to win this $100 bill.”)

Technical_How_it_works

HTML5 + CSS3
- Game transitions and animations
- Audio mp3s for bingo sounds
- Female voice intro "Let's play the privilege game?"
Javascript + jQuery
- Game reads customized .json square microagression data from data.js file
- Content randomizes reload for new game each time
- Win state checks data attributes for winning bingo conditions
- End game at "Winner Winner Privilege Dinner" popup

Technical_Facebook_Developer_Product_Integration

HTML5 Games
- Multi-platform devices for accessible gaming experience
- Integrates into new platforms like FB instant Games, or Wechat
- Disadvantages: Graphical fidelity + Performance not as good as native + Battery life may suffer
Facebook Instant Games
- Web Instant Games bundle configuration in fbapp-config.json
- Easily publishes game to app store for users around the world
Facebook Login
- Two-tap account creation using Facebook-Profile
- Asynchronously loads login in game, does not block loading other elements
- Integrates with Facebook Analytics - requires {your-app-id} and {api-version}
- Refer to documentation page from Facebook for Developers

Technical_User_Privacy_Considerations

HTML5 Local Storage Data
- Bingo cache stores data on user's local device
- Data.js information is removed when user clears cache
- Storage.setItem( 'game_state', JSON.stringify(gameState));
User.js File
- User.js file added for user privacy
- Template for configuring privacy and security
- Reduce tracking from web analytics, tracking, finger-printing, or shoulder surfers
- Harden browser settings against data disclosure or code execution vulnerabilities

Challenges I ran into

Game was super boring with a "fixed"/"hard-coded" bingo board
- Decided to make game configurable with json data so that user can choose tile names and it also randomizes with each refresh.
Uploading the raw code to Facebook's HTML5 Instant Game platform was quite a process. Had to read through documentation to integrate facebook login, fbapp-config.json, analytics, and the continue as {Name} button.
Accounting for user privacy
- In a bingo board game when the bingo cache stores data on user's local device
- Decided that data.js information be removed when user clears cache
