Node-based editor

Compose rules and assets with simple blocks. Share a level link the moment you snap on the last node.

Rapid lobbies

Automatic matchmaking for 3–8 minute bouts. Leaderboards that reward creativity and consistency.

HUD & analytics

Compact performance HUD, replay highlights, and badges that spotlight inventive plays.

How it works

  1. Open or join a lobby—pick a mode and a time window.
  2. Create or fork a tiny level with node tools; test it live.
  3. Share; the system seeds matches and records replays for ranking.

Play patterns

Short sessions emphasize iteration. Designers get quick feedback and viewers can clip standout moments instantly.
