#DungeonSprawl ####PennApps F2014
This is a simple dungeon crawler game, which is played on any number of Android devices linked via websockets to a host computer. Each Android device takes a turn representing a room in the dungeon, thus sprawling outward. The server handles clients joining and leaving in the middle of a game, and larger resolution clients will create larger rooms.
Running
Start the server with node sprawl.js
, then launch the application on the mobile devices.
Enter the IP address of the server and connect.
Controls
