There are a lot of projects that have similar ideas to Space Invader, but they do not have all of the components that Space Invader will have.
Zillow has the mapping feature and the pricing information that will be similar to Space Invader, but it does not have the review features that are crucial for students to view. The positives of this website is that the listings are accurate and updated regularly. It also has a rental rate. This feature would need to be changed for student pricing since the pricing is most likely different.
Rate My Professors is another project that has aspects that would be incorporated into Space Invaders. It has the rating features that allow for communication between renters and prospective students. The overall score is measured by a point system out of five. There is also a qualitative score with additional comments if needed. The categories make searching for common points easy and efficient.
There are parts of projects that will be useful ideas for Space Invader, but there is nothing that is catered to students. The uniqueness of Space Invader will make this project a standout and fit the needs of West Chester students.
