Web-based Fantasy Rugby Game Development

Job ID: 38653366

Budget: €12 – €18 EUR

We are looking to create a web-based fantasy rugby game with the following core features:

- Team Management: Users should be able to manage their fantasy teams, including selecting players, setting up line-ups, and adjusting formations.
- Live Scoring Updates: Real-time scoring updates are crucial for maintaining engagement and excitement during live matches.
- Player Transfers: A system allowing users to transfer players between matches is essential to the game's dynamics.

The design should follow a minimalistic style, emphasising simplicity and ease of use without unnecessary clutter. The goal is to create a seamless, user-friendly experience that encourages frequent interaction.

Additional Features:
To enhance the overall experience, we would like to add the following:

- Leaderboards: Users should be able to view global and friends-only leaderboards to compare performance.
- User Profiles: Allow users to create profiles, save their teams, track performance, and access their game history.

Technology & Scalability:
- Platform: We are open to suggestions, but the web app should be built on scalable, reliable technologies.
- Mobile Responsiveness: The site should be mobile-friendly, ensuring a smooth experience on both desktops and mobile devices.
- Scalability: The platform must be able to handle large traffic during peak periods, especially during live matches.

Analytics & Performance:
- Analytics: We would like to integrate Google Analytics or similar to track user behavior and engagement on the platform.
- Performance Optimization: The platform must be optimized for speed to ensure smooth real-time updates during live matches.

SEO & Discoverability:
Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Ensure the platform is built with SEO in mind for maximum discoverability.

The ideal developer(s) for this project will have:

- Previous experience in game development, particularly with sports-themed games or fantasy sports platforms.
- Strong skills in creating web applications with a focus on scalability, security, and user experience.
- A good understanding of rugby and its dynamics, so they can tailor the game mechanics effectively.
