Console Against Humans is a web-console game that you can play with your friends. The goal of Console Against Humans is to make the most funniest answer to a prompt. Console Against Humans uses Node.js and Socket.io with a really basic web frontend.
- Download Node js and setup Node js if you don't have it already
- Clone this github repo (Dowload the code)
- Open a terminal or command prompt and cd into the repo folder
- Run 'npm install' to get all the packages for this project
- Open the config.json file and make sure you have PORT and Public set to what you want, save it then close it
- Using the terminal or command prompt do 'npm start' to start the game
- Then copy the url from the terminal or command prompt and send it to your friends
Note: Public options in the config.json allows you to play the game with people who are not on the same network as you.
Note: The game works kind of better if everyone is in a call using something like discord. Also put quotation marks (ex: ' ' or " ") around any text input and try to keep your answers short. All of this info is also on the web frontend. Press [f12] to open the console and read chat.
