Scuffed client for coin chase

Coin Chase UI

The coin chase client made in JavaScript. This is meant to be used for a demo. This is really scuffed. It is a proxy node server that will connect to a Unix socket running on localhost:6969 and will send the messages as defined in the coin game from the COOL compiler project. The ui client will connect to this server using websockets and will display the game state and take input from user. It does not always work so yeah. Scuffed. In the UI you have to provide the IP:PORT of the server. The server will be probably running on port 3000 on some VM.

Quickstart

docker build -t coin-game .
docker run --rm -it -p 3000:3000 coin-game:latest

This will start the server on port 3000. Then you have to start the UI from the app folder with

(sure you can also run it with npm install, then copy the server binary from the cool project in here and then run the entrypoint.sh file, but this is easier)

cd app
python3 -m http.server 8080

Then you can open the browser and go to localhost:8080 and you will see the UI. The controls are the same as in the original client wasd, there are less UI effect though since this is a scuffed demo.
