UPDATES:

18/07/2024 - NOTICE

As I am no longer working on this code, I have provided the source to the Client and Server, see the js directory in client and server.

To compile client run:

cd client
npm run build
npm run css

To compile server run:

cd server
npm run build

If you want to modify or extend on any code you can, I'm releasing only the code under GPL. The resources (sprites/images/fonts/audio) have various copyrights and are subject to the condition respective of the original authors. So you may need pay for licensing any content see at bottom for details if you wish to release the same content in a game.

24/04/2024 - NOTICE

I will be no longer working on this project. I've come to the realisation that in order for this project to grow, I need more content and variety. Coding a game like this in a browser has several technical challenges and resource costs which I simply cannot afford being a solo developer. Compiled Client and Server code will be kept up here. The Live Server will run for as long as I can keep it up for without running extra costs but any new releases will most likely not occur.

19/04/2024 - v0.90.01

Mainly code restructuring, some minor fixes. Any bugs or issues or even just suggestions please open a issue. https://github.com/Langerz82/roguequest/issues

13/04/2024 - v0.89.04

Various stability fixes and code re-structure.

13/03/2024

You can now remove your user account. Beware it will remove all your players as well as the account PERMANENTLY from the Data Store.

11/03/2024

Achievements had to be reset as they were not working properly on the server. The data structure also changed. Any bugs with the new format let me know, thanks.

10/03/2024

Minor update to the targetting and movement.

05/03/2024 - Version 0.88

Various fixes and code restructuring. Any bugs or issues or even just suggestions please open a issue. https://github.com/Langerz82/roguequest/issues

06/12/2023

The version uploaded to this repository is v87, which is a new test version. The test server is still at the previous version 86. I will update the Game Server to the same version when I have tested the version more. Thanks.

22/11/2023 Unfortunately there were major errors when saving Players. For this reason I had to wipe the Server data. Old accounts will need to be re-created and Players will have to start from new again. My sincere apologies however this was a necessary step as the data save process corrupted accounts and did not let the users in again once created. Thanks for understanding.
