Overview

Lightweight shared bingo game for watching TV shows together, built around playful prompts and a more social second-screen viewing experience. The project leans into fun over complexity and explores how a tiny interaction can make shared watching more participatory. It is a compact experiment in building something playful, fast, and easy to pick up.

Challenge

Small social games only work if the rules are obvious immediately and the setup overhead stays close to zero. The hard part is making the experience playful enough to spark interaction without requiring much explanation or coordination between viewers.

Approach

The project stays intentionally compact, focusing on quick prompts, simple shared participation, and a lightweight interface that supports second-screen use. By keeping the scope narrow, it can explore how tiny mechanics change group viewing without the weight of a larger game system.

Next steps

  • Add a smoother multiplayer or shared-room flow that is easier to start during a live watch session.
  • Iterate on the bingo prompt set so rounds feel more dynamic and less repetitive.
  • Polish the mobile experience since the product is most useful as a casual second-screen tool.

    Prototype

    Movie and TV discovery concept centered on an AI recommendation interface, with the focus on a polished browsing flow and stronger content suggestions. It is less about building a full platform and more about exploring how recommendation UX can feel clearer and more curated. The project gives room to experiment with interface quality, media browsing patterns, and AI-assisted product ideas.

    WIP

    Habit tracking app focused on atomic daily routines, progress visibility, and a simple flow that makes consistency easier to keep up over time. The idea is to keep the product lightweight while still making momentum and streaks feel tangible. It is one of the more product-minded side projects, with room to evolve into a sharper daily-use tool.

    WIP

    Personal website and portfolio built with Nuxt, used to shape a more intentional public profile and a clean home for writing, speaking, and side projects. It is also where I iterate on tone, layout, and how technical work is presented in public. The project doubles as a small frontend playground for content structure, polish, and continuous refinement.
