Inspiration
HiddenCov is a fundraising and tourism project that aim to increase student knowledge about the history and culture that is Coventry.
What it does
Each challenge will push you to the next level of self awareness through collaboration. Meet other challengers, create a group and complete minigames in order to win discounts from local business and charity stores. Have the option to fundraise while exploring different sites around Coventry, learning about both history and culture! The more challenges to complete the more you discover hidden beauty of Coventry.
This season we have 10 challenges for you to complete along with family and friends.
Each challenge you complete gives you points and unlocks a minigames and each minigame is an opportunity to get extra points.
Use these points to redeem vouchers for local tourist sites and businesses, while giving back to the local community.
The challenge aims to help local charities by creating a fundraising event in steps.
How I built it
The 2D minigame is written in C# using Unity, the backend in Node.js, and the frontend in pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Challenges I ran into
How to scope a hugely creative idea in 24 hours where most of the things we needed to do had to be learned on the go
Sticking to 1 idea and trying to flesh it out into something demo-able
Accomplishments that we're proud of
All of us learned something new and ended up putting together something meaningful to the community, which all of us were passionate about. Most of us were inexperienced coders in web dev, and this project really helped to improve those skills (as well as learn new languages!), and also learn from the more experienced coders in our team to increase productivity.
What we learned
- How to code in CSS for the first time
- How to make a 2D game
- How to use Google Maps API for the first time
What's next for HiddenCov
Getting the backing of the local council and charities and getting people to participate!
