What it does

"Zombies IRL" is an Augmented Reality game that simulates living in an apocalyptic world. Travel the world in search of supplies and fight off the undead.

How we built it

We built this as an application using an Ionic framework that makes it easier to create the app natively. We also used a third party AR builder called Wikitude in order to utilize the phone's full potential and AR experience

Challenges we ran into

Most of our problems came from setting up the environments to work in AR and native applications. Some of them were resolved quickly, and others were hair-pullers. Luckily nothing was impossible to fix!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This was our first attempt at an Augmented Reality game, so for us, finishing with something usable was a big win! We also loved being able to work together as a team once again.

What's next for Zombies IRL

Zombies IRL will be expanding a few features we didn't have time to tackle, like a backpack and a home base. We also want to make sure it gets in the app store soon!
