A simple, yet exciting, 2D multiplayer game bedrock made using only typescript, HTML canvas, socket.io, and some infinite loops
This project encompasses four key services:
- Sprite Editor, responsible for mapping images to entities and imparting meaning and responsibilities;
- Map Editor, streamlining the construction of larger maps using the designated sprites;
- Server, overseeing all interactions and supplying the client with vital information;
- Client, consistently rendering the application's state and managing user inputs.
This game boasts a vast universe of possibilities, with its expansion contingent solely on the investment of time and effort. Already achieved high-level milestones include:
- Dynamic map drawing, adjusting according to the player's relative position;
- Fluid animated player movement;
- Real-time chat and interactive features;
- Distinguishing walkable and non-walkable tiles.
To run it locally you will need to follow these steps:
- duplicate the file
.env-samplefrom the client folder and rename it to.env - at the root folder, execute
npm install - run
npm start
Have fun!
