Introduction:
This game a”pairs game” features multiplayer possibilities of Sockets.io, is was made only for show the features and architecture of a multiplayer development, not for real production game,it uses a Sing in feature to login with Facebook, Google o Twitter credentials ( no need to register), the base is a canvas control that is named “arena” of the game, and only a bar menu to make all tasks.
technologies used:
this are the architecture components used to develop the game:
at the server side:
- node.js server
- sockets.io
- sqlite database
at the client side:
- Javascript
- Mootools
- Bootstrap
- HybridAuth
How it works:
The first time when a user opens the page, observe mode is enabled for default, in this mode you can see all the movements of the game, but you can not interact or flip any card. when the user are sing in, then a new user appears at the left side and the user can flip 2 cards, once the user are in the game his score is saved for the next time game.
Collaboration:
My next goal is that any user can modify the cards images, how to do it?:
-
- First , download the image template from: http://poker.colome.org/images/videopoker_cards_ori.gif

- Then modify the image with your preferences, use a screen capture and image editor like gimp (that’s free) to
- Send the image to colome.disco@gmail.com and if I like it, I will publish it. 🙂
