Hi! I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble connecting. We are making a tutorial on how to connect, but it's not finished yet.
We are also adding feedback messages when something goes wrong with the game. Currently, it just fails silently.
Most likely the cause of the connection failure is that the host is behind a firewall that refuses the connection, or that the client is connecting to the wrong IP.
The IP shown when you click show in the game might be a local address if the host is connected via a router. To find the host IP, the host can go to

How to let the game through the firewall varies between different operating systems. On windows 10, go to the firewall settings. Then select allow an app or feature through windows firewall. Then find hmsmarulken144 in the list and check the checkbox.
I hope this helps!
