We are going to make a realtime multi-user game using Vert.x.
This example is inspired by article.
The game principles will be:
a hero can request to join the game
when required number of heroes is present, it starts the game
there are two teams and heroes are placed on opposite sides when the game starts
when the game starts, treasures are placed on the map but they are hidden underground
when players start playing, they can go and fight others with shovels, which is not very effective
or they can go and use the shovel to dig out a treasure, there are various artifacts that can be found in a treasure, like excalibur sword, powerful cursed magical wands or epic armor from dragon skin.
when they dig in the ground, they can find things like dirt, worms, coins
when one side wins, the get all collected things and they split it amongs the winning team, losers get nothing
heroes can use the spoils to buy special equipment to make their players look ultra cool
Ok, I think I just freaked out with these requirements, but that could be nice game to play I think :) Lets just create a playground and let the heroes move there.
We will need two parts. The first one is the frontend and then backend that will provide data and share data amongst players.
