Spies

Spies is a Google Hangouts application based on the party game Mafia, created at and for SB Hacks.

A Google Hangout is Google's version of a Skype call. It allows up to 10 participants to video chat and use apps together.

Mafia is one of our favorite party games, and we realized a Google Hangouts application would be a great way to be able to play it face-to-face with our friends far away.

The basic idea is:

• two teams: spies vs civilians
• spies try to sneakily kill all the civilians
• civilians try to find out who the spies are
• first to achieve their goal wins
• BONUS: one civilian is a doctor and can prevent spies from killing a civilian if they correctly guess who the victim would have been

We're most proud of the fact that we could get a working app finished in 36 hours (probably could've been 24 if we knew what closures were beforehand). We learned some cool javascript concepts along the way.
