Working hard on Constant Sail: Pirates & Traders for the October competition. It is a pirate game where you sail around a world and trade goods. It is multiplayer and web based with a big emphasis on PvP fighting.

As you can see, even though I am making this for the web, it is being formatted to also work well on smartphones.

#gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

It uses jQuery Mobile + Node.js + MongoDB

Hopefully I get it out in the next week and get someone to upgrade in time to qualify.

And just in time for the October competition.  Thank you ludum dare for setting up this compo. Without it I don’t know if I would ever finish the game that has been sitting around forever.

This forced me to cut features and prevent creep so that I could get it out in time. Of course this means I have a todo.txt file a mile long with features I would like to implement, but alas, they will have to be added in future iterations.

The way it is, you can play online in a mmo game where you can upgrade your ship, trade goods, and sink other players ships in real time. And it is all through the web browser!

Now all I need is one player to upgrade today Bitcoins and papal are both available checkout methods. When you upgrade, you can add unlimited ships to your fleet.

Here is the challenge entry: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/october-challenge-2011/?uid=4337

Been thinking about this for a long time, but now is the time to make it.

Island Warfare is going to be a massive multiplayer web based game where people battle over islands.
