Sansad Showdown not working? How to fix it
When Sansad Showdown is not working, the cause is usually the browser or the phone, not the game. It is a 3D game that needs WebGL, an up-to-date browser and, on phones, landscape mode.
Reload fightkaro.com in the latest Chrome or Safari, close other tabs and turn your phone sideways. Still stuck? Find your problem below.
Opens fightkaro.com, the official game, in a new tab. This site is a fan guide, not the developer.
Quick fixes to try first
- Play on fightkaro.com. The game blocks embedding, so a "play here" box on another site will stay blank.
- Reload. On a phone, close the tab fully and open the game again.
- Update Chrome (Android, PC) or Safari (iPhone).
- Close other tabs and apps, especially videos and games.
- Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data.
- Turn off data saver, battery saver or Low Power Mode while you play.
Not loading or stuck on "Loading neta assets…"
The first screen shows "Loading neta assets…" and a progress bar while the game downloads its 3D files. If the bar stops moving, check your internet and reload, ideally on Wi-Fi. Turn off any VPN, ad blocker or data-saving browser mode for fightkaro.com, or try another browser.
After you pick a fighter you may also see "DOWNLOADING" with the fighter's name and a percentage, and the fight button reads "DOWNLOADING…" and cannot be pressed until it is done. Wait for 100%. If the number stops, reload and pick again.
Black screen or the game will not start
Sansad Showdown is built with three.js, so it needs WebGL, the browser feature that draws 3D graphics. A black screen usually means WebGL is off or the graphics chip is struggling.
- Open get.webgl.org in the same browser. No spinning cube means the browser cannot run 3D games as it is set up now.
- In Chrome on a PC, open
chrome://settings/system, turn on graphics acceleration (older versions call it hardware acceleration) and relaunch. - Update the browser and, on a PC, the graphics driver.
- Black in the middle of a fight? Close other apps to free memory and reload.
- Very old devices may not support WebGL at all. Try another one.
"Rotate your phone" and full screen
The game is played in landscape. Held upright, a phone shows "ROTATE YOUR PHONE". Turn it sideways, and switch off rotation lock if the screen does not turn.
On iPhone the browser bars only hide when the page scrolls, so the game asks you to "SWIPE UP FOR FULL SCREEN". Swipe up once. For full screen every time, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen, and open the game from that icon. The mobile page has Android steps too.
Lag and slow fights
Close other apps, plug in the charger, turn off battery saver and let a hot phone cool down. On a laptop, keep graphics acceleration on. If the lag happens only in online matches, it usually comes from the connection between you and your friend.
If the CPU seems to block everything and hit back at once, you may be on Hard difficulty, not lagging: the Hard CPU blocks far more often and reacts faster. Tap NORMAL next to CPU on the select screen, or press 2.
No sound
Browsers keep game audio off until you interact, so tap the screen or press a key once it loads. Then check you have not muted it: N mutes everything and M turns music on or off. You can also tap the 🔊 button on screen (it shows 🔇 when muted), or pause and check that the Chai Break screen says "SOUND: ON". Finally, turn up media volume and take the phone off silent.
Friend room not connecting
Rooms connect your device to your friend's peer to peer using WebRTC, so a weak or restricted network on either side can stop the room.
| Message | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| "COULDN'T CONNECT" | The two devices could not reach each other. | Both reload, host a new room and retry. Switch one of you to another network and turn off any VPN. |
| "Too many tries, wait a few seconds" | Too many room requests in a short time. | Wait a few seconds, then enter the code once. |
| "The room expired. Host a new one." | Nobody joined within 10 minutes. | Host a new room and share the new code. |
Codes are 4 characters and never use I, L, O, 0 or 1, so if you see one of those, read the code again. The multiplayer guide covers hosting and joining.
Things that look like bugs but are not
- Portal progress gone. Progress is saved in your browser, not an account. Clearing site data, playing in a private window, or switching browser or device starts you fresh. Mbapu is selectable from the start, so beat him again to reopen the portal; see how to beat Mbapu.
- No Budget button. The Budget meter and B key only appear in CPU fights against boss Mbapu, never online, and Budget works once per match.
If Sansad Showdown is still not working
Try another browser or device. The developer also runs a mirror of the same game at takkar.shivambuilds.app; progress there is separate from fightkaro.com.
If it fails on every device and network, the problem may be on the game's side. This fan guide cannot fix the game; the developer's public account is @shivmbuilds on Instagram.
Checked against the live game on 7 November 2026.
Questions
Why is Sansad Showdown not loading?
Usually a slow connection, an old browser or a blocker. If it is stuck on "Loading neta assets…", reload, switch networks and turn off any VPN or ad blocker.
Why do I get a black screen in Sansad Showdown?
The game needs WebGL for its 3D graphics. Check it at get.webgl.org and turn on graphics acceleration in Chrome on a PC.
How do I play Sansad Showdown full screen on mobile?
Turn the phone to landscape. On iPhone, swipe up once, or add the game to your home screen from the Share menu.
Why is there no sound?
Tap the screen once after loading, then check that N or the 🔊 button has not muted the game and that your phone is not on silent.
Why can't my friend join my room?
Rooms expire after 10 minutes without a join, and "COULDN'T CONNECT" means your devices could not reach each other. Host a new room or try another network. See multiplayer.
Will a Sansad Showdown APK fix it?
No. There is no official APK or app. Play in the browser at fightkaro.com; see APK and mobile.
