I was wondering for those that play games (like online multiplayer games), would you like to see an app where you can look for people wanting to play specific games? Like perhaps you could filter by game and play style and then link up with others to play together?

I did make an app that was nearly finished but I stopped because I doubted whether anyone would actually use it. I just wanted to get some feedback on the idea. Do you know of any methods for this right now?

The process:
1. You'd fill out your profile and select which game you want to play.
2. Then you wait for someone to contact you.
3. Someone else can then filter by games and play styles (like casual, plays with mic)
4. Then they can send you a message and add you as a friend and play on your preferred game

Thoughts?
 
Aren't there already apps for Steam, XBox and Playstation? How would this compete? Have you heard of Xfire?
 
I use the steam mobile app, yes. But not very often. I’m a pure PC gamer so don’t have Xbox or PS.

XFire was an app which did exactly what you are suggesting. It stopped being used and closed in 2018.
 
You’re right. I just don’t think anything can be a serious challenger to official channels.

I wanted to do this for a long time. I thought about it but never pulled the trigger. I would probably have it to where you can do it via a website & mobile application. I think it could be very popular if executed correctly. I think it would be best to have the option to connect other gaming networks; epic games, steam, xbox, play station, battle.net, etc. If you plan on bringing it back to life, I would be interested in joining the team if you want some help with it.
