Project Overview

With a love for Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel, Star Trek, and Star Wars. Fantasy was the motivation, and with a love for games we thought, why not make one?

Using jQuery, JavaScript, SQL, Sequelize, ExpressJS, Handlebars, CSS Grid, and NES Framework we were able to create an app that allows users to customize their players character, determine their starting home planet, navigate between planets, generate random resource values on visited planets, check if the planet is hostile, and end game to gather final score upon losing or returning home.
