The problem
A campus-wide challenge needs hundreds of students to play at once without the leaderboard buckling, and it has to feel like an event.
The approach
A Node.js and Express game engine with five progressive levels (binary memory, pathfinding, cybersecurity, AI training and a coding challenge), real-time scoring, rate limiting, per-participant sessions and a podium leaderboard that refreshes itself.
The outcome
A tournament system designed for more than 600 concurrent players, built for the IEEE Computer Society's campus challenge.
What it does
3 capabilitiesFive trials
Binary memory, pathfinding, cybersecurity, AI training and a final coding challenge.
A podium that updates itself
A live leaderboard refreshes every thirty seconds, crowning the top three.
Built for a crowd
Rate limiting and session tracking keep six hundred players honest and the server standing.
