Voice Tic Tac Toe

Inspiration

I used this as a stepping stone to Voice Chess(never finished). I thought I should create a less complex game to understand the back and forth of voice user interfaces.

What it does

Allows you to play Tic Tac Toe with your voice.

How I built it

I used ASK from Amazon and AWS lambda.

Challenges I ran into

The current template system does not lend itself well to creating a touch game like Tic Tac Toe. I had to be creative to make it work. The template system is meant to be used for interfaces that look like this: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/G/01/mobile-apps/dex/ask-customskills/list-2-square._TTH_.png https://developer.amazon.com/docs/custom-skills/display-interface-reference.html

Not being able to have a single entity in an intent.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Being able to touch the interface to play the game. Pushing the boundaries of what is possible with the existing template system.

What I learned

How to program Alexa (this is my first application).

What's next for Voice Tic Tac Toe

Try to improve the interface.
