The Busy Gamer App
The Busy Gamer Web App allows you to track videogames that you want to play, and makes an approximation of how long is going to take you to finish those games, based on your schedule. Powered by How Long To Beat API.
overview
The reasoning behind this app is that not every gamer can afford to play more than 1 to 2 hours sometimes, you can either need to go to work, or lack a lot of free time. This app is meant for you, the gamers who want to check how long it would take to finish every single Persona Videogame lol.

challenges
One of the main challenges was how to handle props within the application, so we can truly track each videogame, and manage everything within the app, from allowing the player to see what games are already being tracked, and managing how we were going to get a result for the user, in this case how to handle the calculations of how long it would take you to finish the games you're tracking in the tracking list.
