I wasn't able to successfully join a lobby and play the game! I like the idea of this online multiplayer experience, but it wasn't working for me :/

I wasn't able to join or host a game unfortunately, was looking forward to a ludum dare multiplayer game.

Sadly either there's something really wrong with game and it is not working as intended or there's not enough players to test this game.
That is sadly the reason why I cannot give this good ratings right now. I will try again later, but for now due to lack of players or just game not working properly I am giving quite low rating.

Creating a room seems to just create an empty room below button, which player has to join. After room is filled and ready to play game should start, but for me all I saw was white screen.
Same goes for spectating others game.

Suggestions:
- Add random entrance to random room (thus giving people chance to just enter game and play it)
- Add some kind of AI/bot to play with players, so even if there's nobody online to play people still could try the game
- Clarify creating a room and joing a room
- Fix other potential issues that are making it impossible to play.

THere's not much games that are multiplayer, so I was really hoping to see this one work.
