Rage of Empire is a game aspiring to recreate the experience of the glorious Age of Empires II, but in the browser.
The motivations of such an adventure are mostly the technical challenge, but also come from my frustration of running AoE2 my Linux desktop and my MacBookPro.
My ambitions for Rage of Empire is for it to become an open source and portable version of Age of Empires II.
But also to become a great open source game, where a community can contribut assets and ideas.
This list contains important features has to be done right (according to my humble opinion).
(NOTE: I prefer the use terrain over map, because of the amguity with a well known data structure.)
- Sprits animation
- Terrain representation format (Probably a huge 8 bits matrix. With the first 6 telling the terrain texture (dessert, grass, water, etc...) and 2 last for walkable and navigatable.)
- Terrain rendering (It's really like... A texture of textures???)
- Snapshot loading (When a new player has to download the whole state of the game)
- Server architecture
- And more...
