Computer Committee Design Challenge

We did a demo of Google’s Dialogflow tool at today’s software meetup. It was a lot of fun and it inspired us to issue a design challenge.

Dialogflow is a WYSIWYG editor for creating chatbots and Google Assistant voice agents. If you missed the class there is a free tutorial here: https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/docs/tutorials/build-an-agent

Here is the challenge; With all of us stuck indoors we thought it would be fun to have everyone create a chatbot game. It can be any type of game, trivia, choose your own adventure, riddles, whatever inspires you.
You don’t have to be a programmer to build a chatbot in this system.

Create your demo and use the built in web demo integration to post a link to it here.

The one with the most likes at the end of April wins a $25 gift card to Cane Rosso supplied by me out of my personal pizza budget.

The fine print:

  • The game must be yours, not copy and paste, and pre-built integrated functions don’t count as game functions.
  • The game must be posted as a link here
  • The prize is also payable in a gift card to your preferred local business if you don’t eat pizza.
  • This is open to all DMS members

Happy programming!
