Among 200 million U.S Gamers, 83% of American adults have experienced harassment in online multiplayer games. Our research showed that 64% of the harassment seemed from the low skill level of the players. Thus, the gaming community needs a friendly and safe environment where they can find teammates and improve their in-game skills. Guddy seeks to create the environment by matching players based on their gameplay, interests, and preferences. With Guddy, players from around the world would be able to find new ways of improving together and find connections that can last for a lifetime.
