Multiplayer HTML5 recreation of the classic game of Stratego.

https://www.stratego.io

Multiplayer HTML5 Stratego.

Built upon Pusher (for websockets) and Google App Engine.

In theory should work on anything that has a browser!

While this only supports the most basic gameplay, hopefully it'll get a lot better with time.

Contributing

Contrubutions are always welcome.

To setup your local instance you'll need the Google App Engine SDK.

You can install all the dependencies by doing:

$ npm install
$ bower install

You can run the front-end tests with:

$ grunt build:tests test

You can run the back-end tests with (uses nosegae):

$ pynt test

You can build the app with:

$ grunt build

You can build the graphics with:

$ grunt build:graphics

You can deploy the app to App Engine by doing (the grunt task will look for a gae.auth file which you must create yourself, see grunt-gae):

$ grunt deploy

You'll need to create js/PUSHER_CREDENTIALS.coffee, eg:

define (require) ->

  KEY: "YOUR_PUSHER_KEY"

You'll need to create gae/CONSTANTS/PUSHER_CREDENTIALS.py, eg:

APP_ID = "YOUR_APP_ID"
KEY = "YOUR_KEY"
SECRET = "YOUR_SECRET"

stratego.io's Issues

Can you add the option to switch the numbers from EU to US?

The EU numbers are very unintuitive for US players; it would be a great if there was an option to switch the numbers from EU (1 -> 9) to US (10 -> 2).

Any tips on making this 3 and 4 player?

The board game is 3 or 4 player, and I would love to play with more friends. Any tips? I could probably hack something up...

All units are sent to both clients

Change saved setup without playing

Hi,

I love this online version of the game, both simple and functional. However, I find it annoying that both players can't setup at the same time, and when playing with friends we have to wait for each other while we setup the pieces before the game. I think a relatively simple way to avoid this would be to give the player a menu entry to be able to change its saved setup without starting a game.

I don't know if you still work on this project. If not, I might try to implement this myself when I have some spare time.

I want to create a container of this app

Hey,

I want to build a container of this app to self host it.
Can you give me some hints?

Numbers and Amounts wrong

The Numbers do not match on the picture on how it is supose to be and the amount of sets per class is also wrong
here are the offical rules for stratego maybe have a look at it to improve it?

not matching

The site stopped matching opponents. It just continually searches. The site has been down for a week.

Rules for Spies and Scouts aren't followed

I didn't explore this too much, but it seemed like the Spy was able to kill anything, instead of just the 10, and the scout could only move one space. Not sure what other rules aren't being followed.

Bombs don't explode

played a game of this but the bombs didn't destroy themselves when they exploded which made games where the flag is surrounded quite difficult!

Game isn't loading after setting up

Hi—my friend and I use your Stratego game often, thank you. We went on to play tonight and for both of us, it just says "Creating game" and the wheel is spinning forever. We just played a few days ago and it was working. Do you know what's going on? Thank you!
