A simple but powerful spreadsheet cell based game built with socket.IO and HTML5 canvas on top of NodeJS.
You can check out how to play on our wiki.
- Move your mouse around the screen to move your cell.
- Eat food and other players in order to grow your character (food respawns every time a player eats it).
- A player's mass is the number of food particles eaten.
- Objective: Try to get as big as possible and eat other players.
- Players who haven't eaten yet cannot be eaten as a sort of "grace" period. This invincibility fades once they gain mass.
- Game logic is handled by the server
- The client side is for rendering of the canvas and its items only.
- Mobile optimisation.
- Implementation of working viruses.
- Display player name.
