Screwble

Screwble!

Grab your whiskey and your stetson, because it's rootin' tootin' Screwble time. Use the mouse to draw words, real or fake, and gaslight your friends into thinking the opposite. Be careful, though! If you get caught in a lie, you'll be shot!

Screwble uses a database to store the definitions of your fake words. If you would've gotten shot, but another cowboy across the globe got shot for that word already, you'll cheat death and continue playing!

Disclaimer

The original intention was to use an ASP.Net C# server to listen to query data using UnityWebRequest, which the server would convert into an SQL command and return a Json string to the client. However, the site I'm using to connect to the server doesn't have any hosting attached, resulting in the following error being logged when the UnityWebRequest is sent.

Regardless, the game still functions perfectly fine, minus a couple small bugs here and there. Would've loved to add more interesting features, like point multipliers for using specific letters, or a way to reroll the board, but there was just no more time left to get all that done.
