Whirrly will be a web-based drawing game in which users of the
website with the same name will randomly connect with one another in order to participate in a random suggestion guess-drawing game. The name is chosen as Whirrly beacause it challenges everyone around the world to be imaginative in drawing meaningfull pictures. The best case scenario of a visitor to the website is: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
8.
Connect to the website.
Press a button like PLAY or Draw. Choose between Heads or Tails to determine which player starts first. The first Player is chosen and receives the object/ animal/ human/etc. he has to draw. There is set a timer for a predetermined amount of time and the drawing begins. The active Player can choose between several drawing tools and colors in order to draw the required picture. The other Player can guess at any time the picture that is eaing drawn in front of him and receives more points if he completes the guess faster than the timer After a number of rounds, a Score overlay is displayed with the winner and the score, also links to Register on the website or to register with Facebook or other social media websites.
In addition, a leaderboard will be added to motivate other visitors to
beat their own score. While a user is drawing on the virtual canvas the other player is assisting in the live drawing of the given suggestion. In conclusion, this web application is meant to be fun and motivating for me to master client-server, server-client relations, also implementing a graphical editor for massive usage in order to be as intuitive as possible.
