Case Study · PlayBombhole
Passwords in plain text. A scoring engine that stopped after one round.
Security first — then multi-round scoring, live TV displays, venue licensing, and billing. 3.5 months from rescue to launch. 4+ venues live.
Status: Live.

Problem
The challenge
The Replit prototype had a single-round scoring engine. Multi-round play, cumulative scoring, and live display were missing. Worse: passwords were stored in plain text. Real users were on the platform with this vulnerability. No venue licensing, no billing, no operator dashboard.
Outcome
What we built
Security was cleared first — every stored credential migrated to a properly hashed system and access controls rebuilt. Then the scoring engine: multi-round play, cumulative scoring, real-time leaderboards, concurrent games across lanes, and a dedicated TV display view. Then venue licensing, subscription billing, and a full operator dashboard.
