Level 1: Roundup

August 25, 2022

8th Nov - 31st Dec 2021

Our first #GamesNightViz project was themed "Player Select", which follows the start of most games - choosing your character.

Throughout the end of 2021 we received 26 submissions!

Data Prep Submissions

On the data prep side, Shahzad Zia helped us find the best Mario Kart challenge.

We also teamed up with our friends from Preppin Data to delve into our Top 100 Female Poker Players Challenge, with a few vizzes built using the data too!

Data Visualisation Submissions

We received 25 visualisations covering several games but some popular choices included:

  • Pokemon,
  • Street Fighter V,
  • and HowChoo.com's top video game icons

Team GNV

This project focuses a monthly theme that you can participate to challenge either data preparation, data visualization or visual design. Existing datasets on video games will be readily available and comes with difficulty scales to help those newer or with limited time to practice. You can also bring data from your own favorite games too! We love all types of games: card games, board games, video games, party games, game shows, the list goes on!
