Writing a multiplayer game is a complicated process. Most likely, it will require not only time and material costs, but also the attraction of additional labor resources.
Necessary
- - a program for working with code;
- - graphic editor;
- - software for modeling.
Instructions
Step 1
Involve additional interested people, designers, programmers and so on in the project of creating a network game, depending on how difficult it will be to implement your ideas, calculate the required amount of labor. To do this, first draw up a detailed game plan. Start with a short description, then gradually add various details for it. When the overall scope is clear, calculate the approximate time, material costs, hardware and software required.
Step 2
Create a multiplayer mode for your game, if necessary. This is quite difficult, since there are several schemes for organizing a multiplayer online game, depending on its genre and other features. In the course of writing the software part, try to draw the details as carefully as possible so that at the same time you can do their graphic execution.
Step 3
After you write the game, load the server on which the data exchange between the players will take place. Test the game for errors offline and online, fix the necessary points, prevent the launch of a multiplayer game with bugs.
Step 4
If you have difficulty in developing an online game with ideas that could give it originality, use some of the ideas from other online games that you think have good potential. You can also build on the opinions of users of online games by creating preliminary polls and relevant topics in various gaming forums and social networking communities.
Step 5
Do not completely copy other people's thoughts, just develop the main idea, combining it with others. Remember that at the moment there are many online games, including multiplayer ones, you can attract new players only with an interesting plot and a good level of performance, which is quite difficult to implement at the moment.
