LazerCatz!
30 Aug 2010
I competed in the first ever Node Knockout over the weekend with a couple of friends and the fruit of our labor is an 8-bit multiplayer shooter called LazerCatz!
It was my first foray into Node and I have to say that event-based programming is a lot easier in the browser than it is on the server, at least for me anyways. There was still tons of fun to be had and the awesome Faye library made implementing a real-time game between many players a breeze.
Please check out the game and vote/review it if you have some free time. Also, if you want to participate next year please let me know, we were short a person this time around and we could have benefited from another set of hands.
