Summary

This PR introduces the Software Design Document (SDD) implementation for the Scribble Game using Speckit, covering the end-to-end game flow from room creation to game restart.

Implemented Business Scenarios

• Room Setup & Lobby

  • Support for creating and joining rooms using unique room codes.
  • Automatic host assignment to the room creator.
  • Validation and user feedback for invalid or empty room codes.
  • Isolation of game rooms to ensure independent gameplay sessions.
  • Lobby synchronization through periodic polling (~2 seconds).
  • Host-only game start capability, enabled when at least two players are present.

• Game Start & Drawer Assignment

  • Player name validation with trimming and rejection of empty or whitespace-only names.
  • Automatic drawer assignment to the host (or first player) at game start.
  • Clear identification of the active drawer.
  • Deterministic selection of a secret word from the starter word list.
  • Visibility of the secret word restricted to the drawer.

• Gameplay Interaction

  • Initialization of player scores to zero at the start of the game.
  • Drawing and canvas clearing capabilities for the assigned drawer.
  • Guess submission workflow for guessers with input trimming and validation.
  • Case-insensitive guess matching against the secret word.
  • Synchronization of guess history across all players through polling.
  • Scoring mechanism awarding 100 points for correct guesses and 0 points for incorrect guesses.

• Results & Restart Flow

  • Display of the correct word, final scores, and complete guess history at round completion.
  • Host-controlled game restart functionality.
  • Preservation of player participation across restarts.
  • Reset of round-specific state and return of all players to the lobby for a new game session.
