It is 00:34 (AM), 11 August 2025. About 1 hour ago I have completed instruction on how to install Progressive Web Application to play iCoup. And it is currently available at this page. PWA allows you to have better experience when you play iCoup from your mobile device. It runs interface in full screen mode on you phone without any browser's control elements. It allows better screen space utilisation on devices with little screens. Enjoy and invite your friends!
My many thanks for your time and participation in this project.

It is 05:45 (AM), 7 August 2025, and I have just deployed the last changes that I have worked on for the last 8 days. The matchmaking mechanism is introduced. And now, when you want to play - you may just use the "Match Finder" option, which will match you with other people who would like to play the game. When you go with "Match Finder" - you have to pick how many opponents you would like to play with and click the respective button to join the waiting room for that number of players. You will receive notifications about any other players joining the same waiting room as you are in, and when the waiting room is full (i.e., the required number of players has joined) - every player will have to press the "READY" button, and after every player confirms their readiness - the game will begin, and all players from that waiting room will be automatically redirected to the same game room, which makes the process of entering the game much more comfortable.
Currently, you cannot see how many players are in the waiting rooms at the moment, which would be really helpful in my personal opinion - I will add this capability soon (in the next 2 weeks, I think).
As a next step, I will introduce the "Progressive Web Application" interface, which would allow better use of your phone screen and, as a result, will make the gaming process on your phone more fluent and comfortable, and will level up your gaming experience!
For Match Finder to be actually helpful - we need more players to play on our server, so if you could spread the word about this game and this server - it would be of great help on your side, and also will help you find opponents much easier. :) So please share the word about this game with your friends whom you would like to play this game with.
My many thanks for your time and participation in this project.

It is 02:19 25 july 2025 and I have just added the beautiful *.svg divider below the header and with that also introduced little easter egg. ;) The divider will randomly change every 2 hours for you. How many eye appealing dividers are there? If you find it out - let me know on our discord server.

Today - on 21 july 2025 I have completed introduction of Underworlds scriptorium fabula page. I was working on this page for about last 6 days (or atleast it feels like that, any way you can check out git commit history here: Link to bitbucket commit history. ). Actually I just checked commit history and turns out I started working on it on 8 july... So it took 14 days. :) Here I am planing to leave updates on different things relates to this project and other aspects of my life.
As a next step - I am going to implement an ability to serve pictures from some particular folder on server, so that I do not have to include those pictures inside of my project and push them to git repo.
