1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

Kewbash is a tactical grid combat game where two players battle on a 6×6 board. The players take turns at the same time. The game involves risk taking and psychology, trying to predict your opponent's moves while not causing a draw. It's inspired by games like Tron and Rock Paper Scissors.

Ha ha nice game!!

Some constructive criticism;

You get accepted into a game, but have to scroll down to find the playground, which is a little mini hassle

You play "the other" sometimes, I thought you always player orange and loled when the cross moved stupidly

The enemy went into himself I think (that should not be possible to do IMO) and I won, but I'm not sure that happened, some visual feedback on why you won would be nice.

Great game I must say!

That's great feedback, I appreciate it. The X or O glows depending on which one you are moving, I want to keep the board state visually identical for both players aside from that though (flipping O or X depending on which you are playing can be weird). I can also make the reason for winning more descriptive, all of that information is displayed in the backend console already.

Raw PvP 1v1 matchmaking, no user accounts, no database, etc. If there is interest I'll keep building it, but otherwise I'm done with it for now aside from fixing any critical bugs that may arise. It's alive!

Should've put the link in the actual text, now I gotta type it manually - UGH ;)

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think this should display both players on the same tile, no? And maybe some hint as to what happened here (so my opponent knows I moved two spaces). In general, it's not always clear what the final move was.

Also, I just now realised that clicking "How to play" again closes the instructions. Was scrolling up and down between matches.

Any way to get a sound to confirm a match was found?

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Great feedback, I can work on that. I'll be adding a forum to the discord for feature requests and known issues.

Died on that hill.

I have NO IDEA how I ended up in that spot lol I thought I was done then I wasn't and I huh? That's when some kind of log might come in handy like in chess. But maybe I'm asking too much of a small game like this :)

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Good game, and great use of your abilities though when things got tight I could tell you were taking a bit more time to think about it. The move log (+ end game reason) is a feature already posted in the forum that will be worked on.

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Very interesting games I've been having.

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I played, I won, I smiled. Good job OP!

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I'm glad, if you have any feature requests or issues you run into feel free to message me here or in the discord.

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago
