Le Noël des Corsaires (The Corsair's christmas)

[jpvaillancourt]

Hey !

We have just release our first HTML5 game  We are a small studio based in Montreal, Canada, that focus on delivering WebGL services to creative agencies. so, this year, instead of creating a Christmas card, we decided to create a mini casual multiplayer game. The goal is to throw decorations in order to claim the trees in the forest for your team. The last decoration wins the tree. It's pretty simple and fun

Here's the tech stack we used for the game :

• BabylonJS
• ReactJS (For the GUI)
• ExpressJS (NodeJS server)
• Socket.io (For the multiplayer features)
• Amazon EC2 (Hosting)
• Webpack

We had a lot of technical challenges to optimize the decorations and the forest, and we think it's working pretty well !

Here's the studio's infos :

Go see and try it ! We would love to have some feedbacks, comments or questions !

Hello!
Your game is awesome! I'm realy like it :)
I'll want to ask abount Client <-> Server communication, I see that data is transported between Client and Server by websocket using binary format. What the library is used for it?

Hi Paul!

We used Schemapack (https://www.npmjs.com/package/schemapack).

We created a tool to automate the process and we feed it a list of schemas at start that is used for encoding / decoding, based on the message name. If the schema is not defined, we skip the encoding / decoding phase.
