Scroll for something to do. Everything is either too far away or isn’t of interest to you. Or maybe you don’t feel like introducing yourself today. It doesn’t need to be that way.
Meet the Odyssey is an app where the Amazing Race with a bit of Tinder and a hint of Pokemon Go.. changes how we connect. And redefines how we travel.
I’m Christina. I have over a decade AI; our team is AI driven but customer focused. Our head of ops is a Vet that keeps the team on track and in line. And we'll be on-boarding a Gaming vet with 20+ years at Unity and Electronic Arts soon to head up game development.
Our company has a prototype for our mobile app. We're looking for students who want to game experience on a technical team to work on upgrading the UI based on our designs from our in-house UI/UX design team and implementing additional app workflows.
Our tech stack is React Native Development using Expo, Convex, and Typescript.
Flows we need to create:
- Friends - see post from up to 50 close friends
- Compete - public quests that are time/location-constricted and auto-generated by our back-end.
- Location Pages - social media pages for specific locations.
- Collect Items - users will be able to collect items and tokens to enhance gameplay
- Text-based Gameplay - we are not creating a complete game but some functionality is needed to be engaging.
- Activity recommendation system (data science)

- Recommendations for future app improvements
Final deliverables should include
- Completed flow implementation that is scheduled for release to the app store.
- A technical documentation.
- A presentation ( 1-2 slides, 5-7 mins).
