Personal game made using pure Javascript Canvas API (without any game engine). Due to many limitations, I have stopped working on this project. Quite a bit of effort was put on this project though, including:
- Dealing with hexagonal grids and determining its boundary (ex. whether the mouse is over the hex)
- Coming up with algorithm to generate random map for each game
- Path finding algorithm for determining where the unit can move to
and many more small details.
Halfway through the project, I recognized how difficult it would be continue with this project unless I have a proper library to make the game with. I tried using Canvas library called konva, but it turned out that using konva actually slowed down the game to the point that it was unplayable (That's when I stopped working on this project.)
By the way, I also utilized tauri for porting the game to a desktop application.
- ecsy: ECS architecture for game design
- webpack: For bundling code
- eslint: For linting
- web socket: For bidirectional network requests
- client: this folder is where all the source code for the game is at
- client_konva: another implementation using konva
- server: used for web socket
