Steam Recommender A Visualization

Hi!

This is a Steam Recommender, which recommends video games on Steam's platform based on games you've already played.

How it works

Using the Steam game data API and the TasteKid recommendation API, in addition to Steam developer tools to access user inventory, we choose a user's "top" games (based on playtime) and build out three levels of recommendations. (This can be changed; three looks the best visually.) ...

What it means

Thicker lines between nodes indicate stronger correlation (this will be updated eventually). First level games (games already owned) are in dark blue, second level games (recommendations based on the first level games) are lighter, and third level games even more light. The size of the game is dependent upon its reviews by other users.

Still to do

• Enable filtering by rating, price, etc.
• Dynamic resizing for screens.
• Ease of selection/navigation.
• Allow users to make game lists on the fly (or other insects of their choice)
• Multi-user interaction.
