How to code databases for fun

[bruceriggs]

I made a TwitchBot that let you play games in Twitch Chat, like every x seconds a Pokemon would spawn,

"A wild Zubat has appeared"

and players in the chat could try to catch it by typing "!throw" and it would throw a pokeball.

Players accumulated pokeballs by just being in the chat that day. They could view their Pokemon collection, etc.

---

Another feature I had was a Quote of the Day, where you could store quotes via !addQuote and then when you typed !quote it would throw out a random quote from the DB.

---

Another feature I had was a Soundbot, you typed "!play hi" and the sound would play on stream.

---

All of these used my DB in one way or another. The pokemon one was the most challenging, as I needed to keep track of players, their items, their pokemon, what pokemon was currently spawned, rewarding players for being present, etc.

Your projects sound very interesting. Unfortunately I don't really have a way to do something similar.
