Resources such as libraries, engines and frameworks to make Javacript-based MMORTS? [closed]
- by hhh
I am looking for resources outlined to make a MMORTS with Javascript as the client-side, probably just a simple canvas for the frontend. The guy in the video here mentions that JavaScript is one of the most misunderstood language -- and I do believe that. I think one can make quite cool games with it in the future. So I am now proactively looking for resources and perhaps some ideas. My first idea contained Node.js, C and NetBSD/bozohttpd (or the-4-7-chars' *ix-thing with green-logo -thing, move the q here) but I acknowledge my beginner -style approach -- this issue is broad and not only for one person to make it all-the-time-improved project! So I think perfect for community to tinker.
Some games and examples possibly easy to make into MMORTS
BrowserQuest here under MPL 2.0 and its content licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0 (source
here)
[proprietary] LoU here
and built with JS/Qooxdoo/c#/Windows-Server/ISS/etc,
source.
MY ANSWER BEGINS HERE TO BE MOVED BELOW, REQUIRING RE-OPENING. PLEASE, VOTE TO OPEN IT -- HELP US TO TINKER!
