Free-for-All
Hyper’s multiplayer mode: enter a shared contest, play your best attempt, climb a leaderboard and earn by where you place.

In short
Hyper was built on one promise: pick a game, beat one opponent, see who wins. Free-for-All added a second way to compete, a shared contest ranked on a leaderboard.
The hard part was adding it without weakening the 1v1 battles players already trusted. The two became siblings on one foundation: game details, tutorials, pending games, currency checks, results and recovery.
Modes on every game. The Games tab and game details show which ways a game can be played, each with a clear way in.
Results by position. You see where you placed and who’s around you, with the total reward up front and the breakdown one tap away.
Currency as part of entry. Players choose HPR or GEM as they enter, and GEM limits read as game rules, not errors.
Never lose an entry. Pending games show wherever you are, and starting a new one warns before anything is forfeited.
Honest failure states. Expired invites, dropped connections and unrecorded games each say what happened and what comes next.
Case study coming soon
I'm writing this one up. Want a walkthrough in the meantime?
