Spaceship Battle was created for a programming festival.
Due to that, updates are unlikely to happen unless I decide to continue the project.
Issues and pull requests are still much appreciated though! 🙂
A Multiplayer Top-down Space Shooter game made with Python 3 (PyGame). (not sure if it works on all Python 3 versions)
To play, you must either launch client/client.py inside of the source code with Python, or open the client executable which you can get either by downloading one or building one yourself.
In order to play you'll need a server to join. Unfortunately I don't have the funds to run a server for an always dead game, so either somehow find one or open one yourself.
W and S - Move forwards and backwards (respectively)
A and D - Rotate left and right (respectively)
LShift - Boost
Any Mouse Button - Shoot (bullet is shot towards your mouse)
M - Mute music
Equals (=) or Plus (+) - Music volume up
Minus (-) or Underscore (_) - Music volume down
To open your own server you must either launch server/server.py inside of the source code with Python, or open the server executable which you can get by either downloading one or building one yourself.
Upon opening a server, you can either choose a custom IP:port or stick with the default 0.0.0.0:7723 (recommended).
It is possible to play with people outside of your local network (LAN) using port forwarding.
Upon opening a server, a lobby will automatically be created in that same server.
Each lobby supports up to 6 players. When a 7th player joins while the lobby is full, a new lobby is automatically created. Upon everyone leaving a lobby, it is automatically closed.
Spaceship Battle uses PyInstaller for building.
