Node.JS Game Server

This project aim to create an easy to use multiplayer game server. Suitable with HTML5 Websocket, Unity3D, Flash, C++/OpenGL/DirectX, XNA clients,... Programmers onlyhave to implement gameplay logic which will be run in each game room and don't have to care much about the core server. The Core Server is a room-based multiplayer system that enable players connect, chat in Global Lobby, join/create room, chat in rooms.

Usage

You only have to run the server.js to run game server. And write game logic code in room.js

Writing Game Logic

Room Logic will be implemented in run() method of the file: room.js like this:

function run(room, player, msg)
{
	// Implement your game room (server side) logic here
	console.log("Processing " + player.name + "@" + room.name + ": " + msg);
}

With room: is the current game room. player: is the current player who sending message. msg: is the message sent from player.
