I randomly remembered this game that we played in high school on school computers a lot. I thought that it would be nice to find it, reverse engineer it and port it to some modern target, but it seems someone beat me to it already for a web version.
There is even p2p multiplayer implemented.

They would configure our user shares to have all our classes automatically added for easy access, but you could manually add any other class or year. This was back before phones or laptops were common in classrooms and everyone would bring games from home to contribute via flash drives or micro USB and also to sneak their bounty back home at the end of the day. A true sneakernet.
