SSHTron is a multiplayer lightcycle game that runs through SSH. Just run the command below and you'll be playing in seconds:
$ ssh sshtron.zachlatta.com
Controls: WASD or vim keybindings to move (do not use your arrow keys). Escape or Ctrl+C to exit.
Code quality disclaimer: SSHTron was built in ~20 hours at BrickHack 2. Here be dragons.
$ ssh eu.sshtron.zachlatta.com
