Birthday quest

An interactive quest around the house across three screens at once: the TV shows the game, an iPad is the controller, a phone is the admin panel. Real-time sync over local Wi-Fi, fully offline, no internet.

What is inside

• A server-side state machine: all three clients always see the same phase, and the iPad recovers after a reload exactly where it left off
• Four mini-games written from scratch: bubble battle, a pendulum tower with support physics, a memory bracelet, and carving a key with your finger
• A four-phase boss with four weapons and a health bar on the TV
• Voice-over, confetti and sound on Web Audio, SVG animation; when a video file is missing a CSS fallback takes over and the party goes on
• The admin panel can jump to any phase, skip a stage or reset the game mid-play
