Hashtag You're it
Hashtag You’re It! is a twitter based bluffing game where players read real tweets with hidden hashtags, submit their own hashtag to fool other players, and then attempt to select the real hashtag themselves without getting fooled by others.

10.16.16 HTYI released as v1.0!
4.20.16 Beta version ready for testing
2/23/16 Playtests and iterations have produced a final design.
1/21/16 We have created the concept and structured out a way to paper prototype this version of Hash Tag You're it. We still need to work on the concrete learning goals and playtest to see where we need to improve the game. I also want to think about how this game can catalogue and archive the content generated in the game to live as a product, for both the real hashtags and the fake ones. Basically I want something to grow and live from the instanced play sessions.
Materials:
- Screenshots of at least 5 tweets in Drive with hashtags
