This game is a simple game where you caputre rectangles by controling the corner nodes. Your opponents can take over nodes. The goal is to end the game with the most combined area of all rectangles. The game supports upto three players over lan (just modify ip.txt).
Note: at the wait screen you can just hit enter to play a solo game.
Missing: - The player has the wrong graphic - The AI is never added to the game field when only one player - The player can sometimes miss a node (there are disparities in the nodes - some don't line up 100%) - There is no indication of what player is connected on the wait screen - There are probably a couple extra bugs here and there.
Note: You need to start the Server/Server.exe before you start the client. Note 2: You need to hit enter at the wait screen to start the game. If you want more than one person just wait till the server says red,yellow, and blue (or fewer), the one person needs to hit enter.
I had trouble getting the game to start as well, and did run the server executable. The server showed the text red, but the game just showed "Wait" and never started.
Interesting idea. I liked it, but as I'm sure you already know, this was a pain to get working properly. Fits the theme well though, and I love the sound/music.
Tracing borders of territory on Mondrian grids is an interesting notion. If you continue to develop this, have you considered speeding up the movement?
Cool idea for a game, I like the Mondrian inspired visuals. I wasn't able to play multiplayer but it seems like it would be kind of fun. You should consider implementing an ai opponent so you can play single player.

The intended movement speed was much faster, however we ran out of time before the deadline to workout the issue.
