martinvd / mk.js

Canvas implementation of basic fighting game which allows multiplayer game over the network.

#mk.js

This is simple fighting game created with HTML5 canvas and JavaScript. It has three game modes:

• Basic - with one active and on inactive player.
• Multiplayer - with two active players on one computer.
• Network - with two active players, playing over the network.

Each mode can be easily chosen by picking a gameType when specifying the game options.

The multiplayer mode can be tested here.

The Network mode with Web RTC Data Channel Demo [here] (http://ptpgamedemo.appspot.com).

For the network game you need to install the server:

git clone [e-mail]:mgechev/mk.js
cd mk.js/server
npm install
node server.js

The server will be started on port 55555. Open your browser and go to http://localhost:55555. Both players must enter the same game name to play together.

#Configuration

In this section I'll describe in short how you can configure mk.js.

• arena - object which contains different properties for the arena.
  • arena - type of the arena. The different arenas are listed at: mk.arenas.types
  • container - parent container of the canvas which is the actual arena.
• fighters - array of two objects which are the two players.
  • name - player's name. It's case insensitive string without any special characters and white space.
• callbacks - callbacks which will be invoked when some events happens.
  • attack- callback which will be invoked on successful attack
  • game-end - callback which will be invoked on game end
  • player-connected - callback which will be invoked in network game when the second player is connected.
• game-type - specifies the game controller which will be used. Possible values are: network, basic and multiplayer.
• gameName - used in network game.
• isHost - used in network game, tells the game controller whether the current user have created the game.
• reset - a method which reset the game. It clean some references and call the reset methods of lower level components. Calling it will lead to removal of the game canvas.
