"Trust me, I'm a bot" -- online multiplayer role playing game

Backstory

BlackBeard the pirate has found a series of islands with legendary treasure scattered about, and he recruits a crew to collect it. However, he starts to suspect that not all of his crew are loyal to him. It is up to BlackBeard himself to learn who he can and cannot trust. BlackBeard must discover the imposter pirates before they steal too much treasure for themselves!

Instructions

Create a game and send the room code to your friends so that they can join your lobby. Once everyone has joined, you can start the game. One player will randomly be assigned BlackBeard, and the others will be imposter pirates.

BlackBeard knows that all the NPCs are loyal to him, so the imposters must act like NPCs to gain his trust. Every 30 seconds BlackBeard notices that some gold is missing and goes into an enraged mode -- during this time he can eliminate one person in his crew by walking up to them and pressing spacebar.

Controls:

Arrow Keys to move

Walk over chests to collect coins

BlackBeard only: Spacebar to eliminate nearest pirate (when in enrage mode)

Win conditions:

BlackBeard wins if he and his crew collect 50 coins.

The imposters win if one of them collects 25 coins.

Dev info:

Made using Phaser and Hathora. Source code available on Github.
