Inspiration

We both were fairly new to programming, and we wanted to make something that wouldn't be too difficult, but still fun to use. We decided making a word game on android studio would be a good choice for us.

What it does

It is a game for 2-4 players in which each player must choose a word starting with the last letter of the previous word, within a certain time limit, or else they lose.

How we built it

We had several screens: one for choosing amount of players, one for choosing names, one for playing the game, and one for displaying the victor.

Challenges we ran into

There were issues with setting up the layout of the screens, because neither of us were very familiar with this.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of independently creating a working game with little/no experience.

What we learned

We learned how to make android apps, as well as java and xml.

What's next for Word Chain

We should add a feature to make sure that words are actually in the dictionary, because as of right now, the system relies on players' honesty.
