Multiplayer Game Engine

Project Overview

Building multiplayer games requires a robust engine that can handle complex physics simulations while maintaining smooth networking. This engine provides the foundation for creating engaging multiplayer experiences.

User Stories

1. As a game developer, I want to:

   • Implement real-time physics simulations
   • Handle network latency gracefully
   • Synchronize game state across clients
   • Support different game modes
   • Debug network and physics issues

2. As a game designer, I want to:

   • Create different types of multiplayer games
   • Define custom game rules and mechanics
   • Balance gameplay elements
   • Test various network conditions
   • Implement matchmaking systems

3. As a player, I want to:

   • Experience smooth gameplay without lag
   • Join games quickly and easily
   • Play with friends across different devices
   • Have fair and synchronized gameplay
   • See accurate game statistics

Example Code

import { Engine, World, Bodies } from 'matter-js';

class GameEngine {
  private engine: Matter.Engine;
  
  constructor() {
    this.engine = Engine.create();
    
    // Add ground
    World.add(this.engine.world, [
      Bodies.rectangle(400, 600, 800, 60, { isStatic: true })
    ]);
  }
  
  update() {
    Engine.update(this.engine, 1000 / 60);
  }
}
