🌟 Inspiration

I live in a different city from my family, and although I work remotely, my colleagues are also spread across various cities and countries. Every weekend, my family and I hop on a video call to catch up and share stories. But let’s be honestβ€”it sometimes gets a bit monotonous. That’s when I had a spark of an idea: what if I could turn these calls into laugh-filled, unforgettable moments? That’s how TNTL – Try Not To Laugh Video Call Game was born! πŸŽ‰ It’s a game where we compete to make each other laugh with our creative antics, transforming ordinary video calls into epic fun. πŸ˜„


πŸ€Ήβ€β™‚οΈ What It Does

TNTL is a turn-based video call game designed to tickle your funny bone! πŸ˜‚ The goal? Make everyone laugh during your turn! For each person who laughs, you score +1 point. The mission is simpleβ€”get to the top of the leaderboard and reign as the ultimate laughter champion! πŸ†


πŸ›  How We Built It

  • Amazon Q was our secret weapon, especially its agent capabilities. The dev features were a lifesaver, magically transforming prompts into working game code! ✨
  • WebRTC and socket.io powered the real-time video and communication.
  • EC2 and Amazon API Gateway held it all together.

🚧 Challenges We Ran Into

WebRTC was a bit tricky at first πŸ˜…, but thanks to Amazon Q’s guidance and suggestions, we navigated the complexities of real-time video with ease.


πŸŽ‰ Accomplishments We're Proud Of

Testing it with my family and seeing the smiles, giggles, and full-blown laughter was a priceless moment! πŸ₯°


πŸ“š What We Learned

We discovered how to build efficiently with Amazon Q Developer Tools, saving time and unlocking creativity.


πŸš€ What’s Next for TNTL – Try Not To Laugh Game

  • Adding more games to the mix! Think Heads Up, Guess the Picture, and many more fun challenges. 🧠🎲

With TNTL, every video call becomes an adventure of joy and laughter. Ready to take your calls to the next level? Let’s play and share some laughs! πŸ˜†
