A shared couch, synced over the swarm

Penalty Clash lobby: find a P2P match, join with a code, or challenge AI keepers with win records and stakes

Pillar 03 · Penalty Clash

Five kicks. No mercy. Real peers.

A best-of-five P2P penalty shootout. Challenge a real friend over the swarm with an invite code — or warm up against AI keepers, each with a record and a stake. You take five, you keep five. Outscore them for the win.

With no server in the middle, QVAC is the referee: it validates every shot and save between the two peers and seals each round with a signed receipt, so neither player can fake a result.

Pillar 04 · QVAC AI + Tether WDK

AI on the mic, a wallet on the bench

QVAC follows the match with multilingual live commentary — and it's the trusted referee for the peer-to-peer games too, sealing every penalty duel and pool settlement with a signed attestation. The in-app Tether WDK wallet handles USDT entries, escrows and payouts — every settlement surfaces its receipt hash in the UI.

The P2P playbook

No server ever touches the ball.

From kickoff to payout in four moves — peers only, end to end.

Step 01

Open the app

One command in the Pear runtime — pear run --dev . — or launch pear://pearcup-kawaii straight from PearBrowser.

Step 02

Pick country & avatar

Choose your nation and grab a kawaii jersey — your profile lives with you, not on someone’s server.

Onboarding screen: choose your country from a flag grid and preview your kawaii avatar
Step 03

Join the swarm

Lobbies, match rooms and watch parties are Hyperswarm topics. Peers discover each other directly — invite links, no middleman.

Step 04

Play, watch, settle

Brackets score live, QVAC narrates in four languages, and the WDK wallet writes settlement receipts you can verify in-app.
