FEATURES

• ack/reject messages from queues to earn points, if you get a streak your bonus gets multiplied
• Fanout mode: Every 30s we publish to all queues for 5 seconds
• Purge: If a queue reaches 10 messages it gets locked and needs purging (bad thing -50p)
• Game over? If you fail to purge a locked queue within 10seconds your customers will be sad and the game is over.
• History! Use your arrow keys to quickly mash out multiple commands.
• Difficulty: increases over time with faster and faster message delivery rates

More stuff we could do

• Add username for a simple "login"?
• Highscore list if published demo?
• Add some identifiers to queues so that we can host it and multiple users can play towards the same server and not disrupt each others queues.
• LavinMQ stats when demo is live? Number of consumers(players), queues, consume rate and peaks maybe?
