Welcome to Loop, Paper, Scissors!

Allow me to loop you in, this is a twist on the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors. You’re the lone guard at the door, and your job is simple: don’t let anyone in. But to avoid conflict? You settle things the old-fashioned way: with a game of Rock Paper Scissors.

Each round is a battle of wits: the first participant to win 3 times,  takes the round. Each round consist in 10 plays.

Lose a round, and you lose a life. You’ve got 3 lives, so make them count, once they’re gone, you’re out.

But here’s the twist: you can bend the rules by creating Sequence Loops and using Loopholes to mess with the expected outcome. Think ahead, plan your moves, and disrupt your opponent’s flow.... But be careful, your opponents are a bit more clever than you think, they can do the same. And on top of that? The systems seems not to like you. Boo!

Loopholes cost nails, so spend them wisely. I’m down to my last few, anxiously grinding while I wait for feedback! Thanks for checking in!

How to Play:

• Mouse:

  • Left Click: Interact with UI elements

  • Hover over a Loophole to see what it does

• Keyboard:

  • 1, 2, 3: Play Rock, Paper, or Scissors

  • Delete: Remove the last input

  • Shift: Remove a Loophole from a hand

  • Enter: Submit your Sequence

  • Arrow Keys: Browse your play history

To use a Loophole:

1. Play a hand (via key or click)

2. Click the played hand

3. Choose and apply a Loophole
   

How they work:

Loopholes are executed at automatically executed every turn if are in the current hand. They are executed in order (except for the shield that rotates back to the queue of the assigned hand).

EDIT: I JUST REALIZED I COULD HAVE PUT IT AS A PLAYABLE GAME IN THE WEB... I even had the time... Only if I knew it was uploading the html.zip file I already had...
