Common Lisp Games
Blaster
A multiplayer Bomberman-like game. Drop bombs to kill all other players.
Requires the following libraries:
How to play:
- Server:
- Start a Common Lisp system.
- Load
server.lisp
(blaster-server:start <port> <map-width> <map-height> <max-players>)
where port is the server port (e.g. 4000), map-width
and map-height are the map dimensions (e.g. 12 and 12), and
max-players is the maximum number of players allowed (e.g.
10).
- Clients:
- Start a Common Lisp system.
- Load
client.lisp
(blaster-client:blaster <host> <port> <nickname>)
where host is the server address, port is the server
port, and nickname is the player's nickname.
Bugs:
- Much too slow, client side should update its state without waiting
for the server to send all info.
- Dead players are forced to disconnect and start a new game.
- All players are of the same color.
- Robots should play when not enough players are connected.
