Heatsweep is a simple head-to-head online board game. Two players rush to connect their starting tiles on a square grid to a random hidden tile on the board (the sweep), guided by a red-to-white heat scale on each tile (the heat). The target tile is, of course, white-hot.
Heatsweep includes a lobby, leaderboard (a requirement of the hackathon), and live turn-based gameplay.
