Blind Flamingo – Couch Party Game
A turn-based island crawler for 1–4 players on one screen — you can never see the map, so every captain draws their own.
The Problem
My first game, originally a C++ university project. The challenge: make navigating blind actually fun, and take it from a terminal to something friends can play together on a couch.
Approach
Rebuilt it as an offline-first web game (installable PWA): hot-seat multiplayer, procedurally drawn islands, fortune wheels, hot-seat duels, rival pacts, hidden companions, and a shadow realm — with the original C++ map ported in. Players chart the archipelago by hand on their own whiteboards as they sail.
Results
A finished, installable game with two maps, four captains, three duel games, and an ending that remembers your voyage — live and playable in the browser.
