Hi, I want to create a video game that's kind of like wordle in a supply chain context.

I'm happy to offer free chess lessons in exchange for help making this game into a reality.

Anyone interested?  Please let me know.  Thanks!

Best,

Richard

Do you know how you would like it to be developed (i.e., executed locally or hosted on the web, language you would prefer it to be developed in, preferred interface, etc.) and do you have a well defined concept for the game (gaming rules, flow, etc.)?  Depending on the complexity you may need multiple developers and graphic artist on the team.  Depending on your answers, I may be able to help.

Hi Walter, thanks for the resonse!  I know I would like it to be web based and I know pretty much what the gaming rules and flow should do, but I don't have the technical know-how to answer which interface or programming language would be most suitable.  Please check your inbox for more details.

Hi Richard and Walter - I am doing some web development and would potentially be interested in helping with this project.  Assuming you're going to want users to be able to log in (not just hit the website and play) you're going to want client side and server development with a database to store information, etc.

Other considerations:
Is this strictly playing the video game against the computer or playing against other people
Is it free, paid, or a mixture of both
There is more, but this is just a jumping off point.

Hi Michael, thanks for reaching out!  Yes, I'd like users to have individual accounts.  The players will try to outscore each other, but not play directly against each other.  Kind of like a golf mode where each player plays the same course on a given day, but one player's score doesn't affect another player's score.  It will be free to play, but I have some ideas to monetize.  Please check your inbox for more info!  Thanks!  Best, Richard
