I’ll be making an interplanetary war strategy game involving orbital mechanics.

I’m planning on using Phaser on the client side, using WebSockets to talk to a nodejs server. I’ve worked a little bit with WebSockets before for web frontend stuff, but this will be the first time I’ve tried doing a networked multiplayer game.

If networked multiplayer doesn’t work out, I do have a fallback plan to use the basic game mechanics for something that’s single player and more tycoon-like. Let’s see how this goes!
