Explorers - Catan inspired Board game based on jME.
Project lead: Methius
Starting date: 10/2008
Recruiting: No
Current status: Temporary hiatus (exams and university projects. ;))
Game type: Board Game
Abstract:
An “Catan” game implementation, having all standard and extra rules. Also included a mapeditor and will include multiplayer of LAN and eventually server play.
This game is implemented to help me in my Master research thesis in incomplete game strategies. The goal is to collect play information in a giant DB and then use that information to create a competent AI.
The game will be built up with modability in mind. Players can make their own Tile/Building models and these can be easily be exchanged for the default ones. Same goes for Playing field background and maybe eventually menus
State:
Map Editor works, Single player works (for maps of X by Y, not statically set), only action cards need to be implemented. Everything else works.
Next stage is GUI for singleplayer (Only the GUI, backbone is already built), then save function, then network buildup for multiplayer and finally db integration for server based game matching.
Used API’s:
jME
FengGUI
