Start the server

Using server.lua :

lua server.lua HOST PORT

FAQ

1. How to play?

   Only a mouse is needed to play this game.

2. Can I play with my friends online?

   Yes, if you have an open TCP port at your router, just use it on the server.lua. However, if you can't open a port, then we recommend using NGROK to reverse proxy front an TCP port.

3. Can I play with less than four players?

   At the time, no. We're still working to make possible to play with less than four players.

4. Can the server host multiple matches?

   At the time, no. We're still working on multiple threads to run more than one match. (You can still do it with the current code, but if two players try to do a movement at the same time it'll much likely cause an overload on the server and one of them will fail!)
