Hastin's Audition for the Fan Games section!

[hastin]

Hello everyone!

So, quarantine - I was looking for a long-term project to tackle, and with both a resurgence of Millionaire on TV, and the lack of the Disney Parks being open - I decided I would create a livestream hosted version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire - Play It!". This was actually for a physical event that I'm doing early next year, but I thought it would be fun to give it a start now.

Since I already had the framework setup in a (unnecessarily complex) PowerPoint, I expanded it to be the full game.

Anyone could play from hastin.games watching the game, and the game used a scoring system exactly like the theme park attraction.

Anyway, here's a full video of the experience: youtu.be/5acry-ZCe9k?t=1829

The first couple of camera switches are rough, but during the game I figured out the best way to get both the contestant and host on the screen at the same time.

I'll probably do this again at some point soon, but there's some bugs and issues I need to fix. Anyway, hoping to join the Fan Games section to share some lessons learned, maybe work on the graphics a little, and offer advice. I currently have someone helping me do a full studio render for an improved version.

Thanks!
