Description

• A classic rock, paper and scissors game
• Any two remote players can enter a game room and play the game
• Server capable of handling multiple games being played across multiple rooms simultaneously
• Graceful shutdown when a player leaves room
• Latency less than 30ms

Working

• Uses socket.io to implement real time communication.
• Player 1 opens a room with any room code.
• Sends room code to Player 2.
• Player 2 joins room with given room code. Once both players present in room, game starts.
• Server maintains an instance of game logic against the room code and broadcasts state of game to all sockets belonging to a room. While, each client emits player’s choice to the server. Game logic is entirely handled on server side and client maintains only the present state of game.
