DanteQuest

Medieval fantasy adventure game, a full node.js/socket.io/HTML5 stack and browser based client.

This is a fork of this repo, which is in turn, a fork of the popular BrowserQuest HTML5/node.js adventure game and proof of concept.

DanteQuest adds many new exciting features that work into the original socket.io client-server communication framework.

New Features

  • NPC dialogues and speech options
  • A chat log for players
  • Quest progression and JSON data
  • Fix map editor export code and add custom tileset
  • Custom combat formulas
  • Levels and experience, which give points for trainable skills, which affect combat
  • An inventory system with equippable weapons and armor
  • A crafting and recipe system for creating new items
  • Shops synchronized across the server that allow for buying and selling items
  • Better client-server communication with these new features
  • Beautifully written dialogue, inspired by the Witcher book series, Warhammer lore, Monty Python, and more.

Starting a Server

npm install
node /server/js/main.js
(open or host) /client/index.html

Creating the Map

The original BrowserQuest, and this fork, relies on .tmx files, which can be edited with the Tiled Map Editor. These .tmx files are exported into JSON through a Python3 script, using the following commands:

cd tools/maps
python export.py client && python export.py server

See the original BrowserQuest for the first Python2.7 exporter. This project uses the original artwork by @glecollinet, and the DawnLike tileset, by DragonDePlatino.
