Hi, I’m Omkar — a passionate creator who enjoys building unique projects and fun experiences.
I love experimenting with ideas, mixing creativity with logic, and turning simple concepts into engaging products.
Jinx reflects my interest in game mechanics, human interaction, and suspense-driven gameplay.
Jinx is an offline multiplayer party game designed to create suspense, drama, and laughter among friends.
It is played on a single device, making it perfect for group gatherings without the need for an internet connection.
The core fun of Jinx lies in not knowing why you were chosen — and whether the truth will be revealed.
- All players sit in a circle and pass the device on their turn
- A random player is selected to begin
- The chosen player secretly reads a question (nice or mean)
- They announce a player’s name without revealing the question
- A coin toss decides the outcome:
- Heads → The question is revealed, leading to fun and dramatic reactions.
- Tails → The question remains a mystery.
- 🎲 Offline Multiplayer – No internet required
- 🪙 Coin Toss Mechanic – Builds suspense every round
- 📱 Single Device Gameplay – Easy and accessible
- 🕵️ Easter Egg –
Add OMKAR (in all caps) as a participant to unlock a hidden message
- Gather your friends in a circle
- Pass the device to take turns
- Read, choose, toss, and react
- Enjoy the suspense, drama, and laughter
Jinx was developed as a college project to explore:
- Game logic and flow
- User engagement through suspense
- Offline multiplayer interaction
