Bubble war is an online multiplayer typing game.
You fight your opponents by typing the words on top of them.
You collect perks the same way as well. You can activate perks using "/perk-name".
Don't rush, check the perk list because it may cause damage as well.
spend 4k of credits on failed ideas.
The tank war was great but the art was not good. I bought a subscription in third party products to handle the art for me and brought them to figma make through custom mcp (connectors) but they didn't work. The art is not good at all.
Disappointed on myself and on those products. I simplified the idea to bubbles.
Spent so much time preparing the master prompt and the assets in figma and planning through figma jam.
At the moment of truth I did another big mistake. I used Claude sonnet 4.6 and not Opus . I saw in a doc of figma make a tip to use the strongest model for the bootstrap prompt. But I didn't pay attention.
I hit a nother blocker after I found out that both Supabase, instantdb presence can't handle less then 100 ms of latency and refresh rate.
To be honest, I could've stopped here and submitted my entry. But I felt it will reduce the value of the game by half. Even though the challenge is aiming for working prototypes. But Nah! I wanted to go an extra mile.
I hooked the project to claude code through figma mcp and asked for a solution. It suggested some Saas services or a custom Phoenix server.
I am a developer myself, so I went with the server and boy it was hard. My heart popped up. By the end, it almost burst.
I can't believe I am submitting this for you to try.
Please don't break it. I can't afford to spend more 😂

Leave a feedback in the game so I can make it better. But for now, let's wait for the hackathon to wrap up then I will see how to update it. I am not touching it until the results of the hachathon come out.
This is so creative! Don't forget to share this to Instagram, X, or LinkedIn with #ConfigMakeathon and @figma and drop the link in the comments here!
I submitted the posts link through the official form. But I will share them here as well. Thank you.

For the #ConfigMakeathon, I built Rollroom 🎲
A desktop-only backgammon web app where you can create a room, share one link, play live 1v1, chat in real time, use voice commands, or play against a bot.
I built it with Figma Make, using Figma’s AI workflow to move from interface design to a working interactive prototype.
The idea: make a classic board game instantly playable online, without accounts, setup, or friction.

Good work!
SPOT THE BOT, a gallery game about telling human creativity from a machine's
The problem. AI can now create almost anything, and for designers that's not abstract. The fear is that taste, judgment, the human "tell" in a piece of work no longer counts for anything. So instead of arguing about it, we made a game out of it.
The idea. Everyone gets the same prompt ("give beige a personality," "what keeps you up at 3am"), the same fixed kit of pieces, and 30 seconds. So does an AI. Every tile lands on a gallery wall, and players vote: which one is the bot? Then comes the reveal: who fooled you, and who you fooled. The constraint is the whole point. When everyone has identical pieces, the only thing separating the tiles is taste, wit, and choice, the human stuff. Right now the bot fools 72% of players, and every round feeds that number: a live, accumulating measure of where human judgment still holds the line.
The build & workflow. Designed and built end to end in the Figma ecosystem: the editor, the real-time multiplayer rounds (MAKE, VOTE, REVEAL), and the MUSEUM of every player-made tile. The asset kits (risograph, torn paper, duct tape, liquid metal, and more) were generated with Weavy.ai.
It's recursive by design: a game about spotting machine-made art, built with the machine's own creative tools. The medium is the argument.

Good work!
I built a shared space where the simplest childhood game creates real moments of connection.
Back in school, Rock, Paper, Scissors was never really about winning. It was the ritual. The eye contact. The split-second tension before the reveal. The laugh when you lost. Those tiny shared moments between classes and during lunch breaks.
Today, we're more digitally connected than ever.
Yet most of us spend our days working alone moving between calls, tasks, and notifications.
So I asked:
What if that same simple game could become a place where people feel together again?
That's why I built The Arena.
The Arena is a shared world where anyone can create or join Rock, Paper, Scissors tournaments.
→ Friends can start private arenas
→ Strangers can jump into public ones
→ Every match becomes a small, live moment of anticipation, reaction, and connection
The game is simple.
The goal isn't really winning.
It's the feeling of sitting across from someone even if you've never met them and sharing that brief, human moment.

love to see you feedback and suggestion there is suggestion button where you can share suggestion and let's build this together.
