About this game

Weave web - place the deadly silk between the walls and trap your opponents.
Can you outmaneuver your friends on the battlefield?

NOTE
This is a passion project that I'm building mostly to experiment, play with my friends, and make some new ones.
I did not and do not expect this game to be financially viable but I do want to make a quality game and support it.
This means that no matter how bad the game sells I intend to add more stuff to it over time, but the cadence of those updates is not certain.
