No download. No account. No browser. Open a terminal, run one command, and you land straight in a lobby — bots on tap, or a room code to send a friend.
ssh torpido.dev
Your SSH key is your identity, so your record and nickname come back with you every time. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to remember.
- A bot to warm up — three of them, always around.
- A friend — create a room, send the four-letter code, settle it 1v1.
- Quick match — get thrown at whoever's online.

- Real 1v1 over SSH — invite codes, quick match, password rooms, rematches
- Three bots — Rookie, Admiral, and the Sea Wolf, who hunts by probability and does not miss
- A leaderboard that follows your key — top ten and your own rank, no signup
- Terminal, but with a pulse — waves that roll, hits that explode, a battle log that scrolls
- English & Türkçe
One Go binary that speaks SSH. Wish hands each incoming session to a Bubble Tea program, so the exact same code drives your terminal and every opponent's. The connection is the game — no client, no web app, nothing to install.
go install github.com/ensardev/ssh-torpido@latest
