Inspiration

Trivia with Friends is inspired by nights out with the crew, playing trivia in all forms and fashion!

What it does

Trivia with Friends is a fast paced party trivia game, the first player to score 6 letters and spell TRIVIA on their scoreboard wins the game! Features 2 leaderboards, one for correct answers and one for total wins. Each player podium features a Custom UI with a button for buzzing in that also displays the player's score and the current question. When a player buzzes in all other buzzers are locked while they answer. The trivia control podium features a Custom UI with buttons for controlling the flow of the game. The question and answer set is stored in a JSON text object, making it a breeze to swap in new question and answers sets. We also made it very easy to remix, tearing away the mesh and creating an entirely new trivia experience is a breeze!

How we built it

We used the Environment Generator in the Desktop Editor to design the scene as well as mesh assets from the Public Asset Library to fill it out, we used the Creator Assistant to create the scripts and the content for the JSON text object as well as setting up the scene, and we used Blender for a few of the meshes.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest challenge was the time constraint and having this ready by the deadline along with 10 other assets for the mini challenge.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of how quickly we brought this World to life, with the entire build and scripting taking just over a week. We are proud that we finished this remixable World and 10 assets in the provided time frame.

What we learned

We learned even more about how powerful and useful JSON text objects are, and we learned how to better use and guide the Creator Assistant and Environment Generator to get exactly what we want without it going off the rails.
