Show HN: Minesweeper game I built to be real-time Multiplayer

17 points by bluelegacy 7 months ago

With the goal of creating a Minesweeper game that isn't just single player, here is what I came up with:

• Live games allowing several people to play at the same time

• Scoring system rewarding correct actions

• Different board options depending on skill level

I met a dude at a Rust meetup a few months ago who was creating an infinite, multiplayer minesweeper game in Rust/WASM you might also find interesting! http://infinitesweeper.online

The first iteration of this concept was located at http://mienfield.com (now defunct, see also https://www.reddit.com/r/mienfield/), and the one that I had been aware of since it died is https://m3o.xyz/

This brings back memories! Haven't played Minesweeper in years. Curious how the multiplayer aspect changes the strategy - does real-time competition make you take more risks? Excited to try the beginner mode.

I played this last time it showed up on HN. It's really fun!
