Hey! I've been working on a little multiplayer space game called Scrapix, and it's finally playable -> https://scrapix.fun/

It runs right in the browser, so there's nothing to install and no sign-up.

20 ships start out as the same tiny junk boat. You blast asteroids, shoot pieces off other players, grab their parts, and bolt them onto your own ship in the middle of the fight. By the end, people are flying some pretty weird creations. Last one alive wins.

It's still early, and I'd really like to know what you think. What was fun, what was annoying, and whether anything broke? Every comment helps.

Stealing parts off other players mid-fight is a fun hook. One thing to watch in a 20 player match: when you only have a few players online, bots or a short warmup timer can keep the lobby from feeling empty. Also make sure a player who's losing still has something to grab, so a snowball doesn't end the match in the first minute. Is it server-run or peer to peer?

    Hi, thanks for feedback. Yeah, for now game feels empty indeed, and balance is not great. This is intended to be fixed in the future.

    Game has authoritarian server since this was the easiest way to implement the multiplayer in my case. It would be fun to have P2P tho
