Darkorbit "Clone"

12/23/2012 07:31 bisa130#1
I decided to start over with porting this game into browser based multi player after getting more experience in multi player programming.
I've gotten to a point where you can do the following things smoothly:
  • Login
  • Fly Around
  • See Other Players Fly Around
  • Target Other Players
  • Fire At Other Players
  • Be Fired Upon By Other Players
  • Logout
I'd like to know what people think about the graphics setup.
Especially the engine trail, since its non-original.
Here is my YT video previewing it.

Next clone? :facepalm:
-Ship fly so slow
-The "fire" from ship is so boring...

Thx for feedback!
-ship speed can be altered
-Any improvement suggestions? =P

*I made this clone source from years back Lol ^^
Also, I have never seen a "server release" before.
If it gets to a playable state I might release a server build

Primarily pvp, but I might add NPC's as well at some point in time.

Map-switching is an easy task and I already have a concept in my mind ^^
If it's something I should worry about it should be how net-heavy the game will be, and I'm trying to keep it to a minimum. =P

Nice to hear some of you like it.

Here is a video of the targeting / firing so far.
If you'd like to help out, I'll need another targeting image/texture. (got a bunch of PM's from ppl wanting to help out)
I apologize for the video quality. The program I used wouldn't let me do over 30 fps nor would it let me render it uncompressed.
