[ANN] bomberman.bitcoinlab.org - real time multiplayer bomberman clone

[holorga]

hey people!

I think that bitcoin related games are missing a skill and multiplayer components.
so I've made a web framework and an html5 game engine on top of nodejs.

I needed a sample game, started working on some kind of multiplayer tetris, realized that that's super boring, and ended up making a bomberman clone, as I really like bomberman. the idea is that players put some bitcoin in, play bomberman against each other and the winner takes all.

its also a good game choice I think as its not totally trivial to create a bot for it.

the game engine supports replays, infinite maps, and other cute stuff. I might create a 3d renderer for a game in three.js or something later

I'll need test players in the following days. and those interested for alpha play, please register at

http://bomberman.bitcoinlab.org/

and here are the two screenshots

current graphics are placeholders only, its very probbable that I'll create a public contest for sprite desings with some bitcoin amount as a reward.

bye!

Looks awesome! Bomberman was always one of my favorite games. You got my e-mail.

yeah, ended up on a trip so I'm a bit late with this, but it will be finished for sure.
register on the http://bomberman.bitcoinlab.org or follow this topic and you'll get an update when things change.. I have a working prototype and need to wrap it up, will do that in the following month or two, sorry for the delay.

I'm also looking forward to playing this

I know about bombermine, and I don't like the way it feels. I'm confident in my code and don't really need outside help..


I'm still alive and working on this it took loads of time, I ended up working on a few nontrivial projects this game is based upon,
I wrote my own web framework, game engine, graphics engine, and such.
it will be easy to expand upon or create new games after this one.

its almost done, its playable now. I don't know when I'll launch.
