I'm thinking to develop a mainly browser based strategy game. Don't worry about the 'browser based' term for now. Game will be published on other platforms like PC, Android, iOS in the future. The game will be having players & alliances at the very bottom. Each player will have villages more than one. Each village will have resource and infrastructure buildings such as Iron mine, Woodcutter, Crop fields, Brickyard for production. Central building, Embassy (for alliance management), Marketplace, Trade office, Treasury for general topics. Barracks, Academy, Rally point, Smithy, Stable, Workshop, Walls for military and defense. Warehouse, Granary, Greater Warehouse, Greater Granary, Cranny for resource storage. Palace, Residence, Town hall for expansion of villages. Each village will be able to train troops to battle. There will be 2 types of troops: infantry and cavalry. These troops will be divided into 2 sections: battle and raid or destruction. What I mean by destruction troops is, there will be catapults, rams etc. to destroy walls of other villages and damage their buildings, lower their building levels and then destroy village or conquer. Players will be playing for their alliances created by other players. There will be diplomacy between other alliances like confederation, war, neutral. There will be a greater purpose of the game that every alliance will be going to aiming to get it. Alliances will be working together or fighting each other to fulfil that greater purpose.
I will be working on the back-end and the REST API side of the project. REST API will give us the confidence to add new features, updates and cross-platform integrity in the future. I will also be helping on the front-side development of the project, as much as I can.
Technologies I'm working with:
- HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript/JQuery
- Sass, Bootstrap
- Node.js, Express.js, Socket.io
- MongoDB/Mongoose, MySQL, SQL
