How does the game fit the theme?
If everyone trusts everyone else then everyone gets points and a bonus, but if you can blow up 2 other bombs 1 one shot then you get more points.

Will you trust everyone else? Or will you trust no one...

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
3rd party assets used:

* JetBrains Mono font
* Floor 5 from https://lynocs.itch.io/texture-pack
* https://freesound.org/people/Paul368/sounds/411559/
* https://freesound.org/people/kirkpatrick.live/sounds/495367/
* https://freesound.org/people/steel2008/sounds/231277/

Built using godot with a go backend.

The bombs are a polygon circle with a stroke, created in code. I drew the feet, eyes, and fuses in Affinity. The spark and explosions are polygon stars created in code.

I made the background music in the chrome music maker experiment: https://musiclab.chromeexperiments.com/Song-Maker/song/6010225546625024

The client & server communicate via protobuf over websocket using a custom protocol. I opted for simple, and stupid. It only forwards input deltas, everyone reports explosions, and the server trusts the clients.

I love the prisoner dilemma here. Cool idea

Very cool game design, good job!

I like the concept of it, the artstyle is cool and it reminds me of Paper Mario. (Maybe Paper Mario visual with Mario Party minigames type vibe).

Fun idea! Feels like the prisoner's dilemma but in bomb form!

Got exploded almost instantly, what a thrill. Great concept!

Fun concept! Could make for a great multiplayer/party game if/when fully fleshed out.
