Quizness Time

Quizness time is a free quiz platform. powered by Unity and the Open Trivia Database

At a time when everyone is forced to self isolate and people are looking for things to do, we decided to create a super-lightweight quiz hosting app that you can run on your computer, and stream to your friends, hosting your own virtual quiz nights.

All you have to do is download the game, run the app and then stream it to whoever you want. The way people answer the questions and scoring is down to you. Version 1.0 is barebones and we will add features based on how it is used and feedback.

How do I work it?

You act as the quiz master and stream it however you want!

1. Download the zip and run the Quizness_Game.exe.
2. Start your streaming service
3. Select your category and amount of questions
4. Hit start
5. A text file will open with your answers, hide this from your viewers.
6. Press next at your own pace
7. When you run out of questions the game will return to the main screen
