Clutch

Self-hosted, real-time trivia

A Kahoot-style multiplayer quiz platform for small groups. Upload an Excel, share a join code or QR, and race the buzzer — a host console drives the room while everyone plays from their phones.

Clutch is a full-stack party game built to run anywhere — drop in a spreadsheet of questions and you have a live game in seconds.

The server runs an Express + Socket.io game engine with deterministic scoring, per-round timing, shuffled options and six-character join codes, persisting sessions to SQLite. The client is a Vite/TypeScript SPA with a 3D voxel lobby, animated wordmark, and a reconnect-safe socket layer.

Players join from any device; the host screen orchestrates rounds, reveals answers, and shows a live leaderboard with confetti on the podium.
