Inspiration

Love for music and the want to quiz self and friends for fun.

What it does

Takes a spotify playlist link that is public, and shuffles it before making you guess the song! You can choose between 3 song length changes to make it easier or harder.

How we built it

We built this entirely in python, using spotifyAPI and youtubeAPI to gather songs and play their audio

Challenges we ran into

Originally we were planning on this being a web game but ran into issues with with it being hosted on a server, mainly having a server two people can communicate with at once.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Usage of API keys, it was both of our first time using them, and it was able to work as envisioned. Also our assets and how the game turned out visually and gameplay wise.

What we learned

Learned how to use API keys and how to use pygame as a framework for graphical display on python. How hard it is to setup a server with network connection to enable multiplayer. How to use multi-threading to allow for faster processing speed concurrently.

What's next for Song Quiz

If we continue with it we would like to add more GUI elements like sound display, scoreboard, or timer. Possible multiplayer but that would involve a complete revamp.
