Introducing SpeeDebug
Debugging can be motivating, but it isn't usually fun. Simulated debugging is another story. SpeeDebug is a browser-based multiplayer game that challenges players to debug some seriously broken Python code. Each round consists of five multiple-choice questions, each of which offers a snippet of bugged code and several options for debugging it. Players receive one point for each correct response. At the end of a game, whoever has the most points wins.
The first player to join a game can designate the maximum number of players. Gameplay begins once that many players have joined.
It's a bug and a feature.
How To Play With Multiple People
We suggest utilizing ngrok to play online with multiple people. Start the server by running poetry install to install the project, and then poetry run python -m server to start the server. Then, sign up for a free ngrok account at https://ngrok.io and install the ngrok CLI using the site's instructions. Once ngrok is set up, you can use it to make the server available everywhere by running ngrok tcp 8081 and sharing the forwarding link with friends.
To run the client locally, you must have node installed. Then, navigate to the client directory with cd ./client, and install dependencies with npm install. The client can then be launched with npm start, which will make the client available on localhost:8080.
Extending SpeeDebug
SpeeDebug ships with a bank of questions stored in questions.json in
the server directory. We encourage you to fork this repository and add
some of your own.
