Extremely simple online multiplayer game
- by Postscripter
I am considering creating a simple multiplayer game, which focuses on physics and can accommodate up to 30 players per session. Very simple graphics, but smart physics (pushing, weight and gravity, balance) is required.
After some research I found a good java script (framework ??) called box2d.js
I found the demo to be excellent. this is is kind of physics am looking for in my game.
Now, what other frameworks will I need? Node.js?? Prototype.js?? (btw, I found the latest versoin of protoype.js to be released in 2010...?? is this still supported? Should I avoid using it?)
What bout HTML 5 and Canvas? would I need them? websockets?
Am a beginner in web programming + game programming world. but I will learn fast, am computer science graduate. (but no much web expeience but know essentionals javascript, html, css..). I just need a guiding path to build my game.
Thanks
