My first real OSS project, feedback appreciated :)

Some backstory:

Last weekend at HackNY my friends and I built a worms / scorched earth style game that you can control with your phone (even dumb phones and landlines).

I then ripped out the twilio and node.js bits so others can make phone-controlled apps.

Enjoy!

PS My friends and I will be presenting the game we made in NYC on November 2nd at NYTM, make sure to come if you're in the area.

Where's the Scorched Earth game?

Hey chopsueyar, since it's meant for situations with a large audience and a projector, we haven't made it public. If we do however, we'll definitely let people know.

All it needs is a voice to text translator. This is pretty cool.

I didn't get it - nothing really happened for me after I pressed buttons.

I didn't get it at first as well, all i heard was "View" on the phone. Did you try scrolling down a bit to the section - "Events show below as people and phones hit the above URLs," your actions get appended below that like.

  {"action":["+XXX-xxx-xxxx","1"]}
  {"action":["+XXX-xxx-xxxx","9"]}
BTW - this is damn awesome, thanks open sourcing this.

I was sitting next to you when this was coded at HackNY. Good work haha
