Plunderflut, a co-op roguelite in the browser

One raccoon against endless waves, alone or with a second player who joins through a four letter code. A link is enough. Built without a single dependency: canvas in the browser, and a server of plain Node that only relays messages. A boss every ten waves, one shared leaderboard.
