Abstract
The TaleBlazer mobile application, developed by the MIT STEP Lab, allows users to create and play custom location-based augmented reality games. Many of the current games are created by TaleBlazer partner organizations, but the means of sharing these games with the general public is difficult and restricted. Zap and Go was conceived as an easier way for organizations to broadcast games to the public, and for the public to download, find, and play these games on their personal mobile devices. This paper presents the backend modifications and user interface designs implemented to support the desired Zap and Go features. This work paves the way for an improved gameplay experience and the growth of the TaleBlazer user base.
