Defense of the SnederDome

A quick and dirty prototype of a game server for snengame.

Written in-between concussion dizzy spells; some decisions made to minimize having to think hard about them. Other decisions made to ease the Soon(tm) networkification of this code.

What's implemented

  • Most cards (Jokers are Valkyires)
  • Playing, moving, attacking cards
  • A hacky loop to test out game commands

What's not implemented

  • Actually winning or losing
  • Ready checking
  • Second player draws an extra card

How to test

Run the snengame binary to use the built in game loop.

Commands are entered like so: s|a arguments

State Commands: d: Print debug screen g: Print game screen b: Begin game s: Start turn e: End turn Action Commands: s: Scry your life points in cards d : Draw card at position x from your most recent scry p : play card at postion x in your hand to postion y on your side of the board (from the left) m : move card at position x on the board to position y on the board a : attack position y with card at position x on the board

Example Commands: s 1 d: (available to both players at any time) show debug screen s 1 g: (available to both players at any time) show game screen s 1 s: Start Player 1 (Sentinal)'s turn a 2 p 0 1: Player 2 (Scourge) places the card at hand position 0 on board position 1 a 2 d 2: Player 2 (Scourge) draws the card at position 2 of their most recent scry

Other notes:

Player 1 (the top side of the board) is known as Sentinal. Player 2 (the bottom side of the board) is known as Scourge. Yes these are from DOTA Allstars

Any player can begin the game; whichever player presses the start command first goes first
