RS Card Game - how to do it?
Language
- PHP/Ajax -- I already know most of the language and no one has to download any programs. This way we can also integrate it with the RS site easily.
Java -- I know the language, but running applets in a browser is not all that fun, and also I don't have any experience with sending information over the net.C++ -- Not so bad, but platform-specific (although nearly everyone in the RS uses Windows) and I would rather have the more immediate integration with the RS site possible through AJAX.
Main components
- The card game rules... clearly the most complicated part. I'll need to think about this quite a bit.
- Integration with the website, which can recall card sets, etc.
- A chat interface whereby members can communicate with each other in-game
Previous efforts
- Munchkin Online forum post apparently many people have thought about coding this before!
- Discussion of implementation (I'd have to agree with their implicit recommendation of not trying to hard-code all the rules)
- Munchkin reproduction policies Yeah, we aren't actually allowed to make this game by the copyright rules.
- Supposedly there's a Munchkin computer game being made! See original announcement and subsequent announcement. But I just read through practically all the news archives since then and it was Never mentioned. I think I might shoot them an email.
