The sequel to [[Emu War Online 2]] and [[Emu War Online 1]]. [[Emu War]] but as a web-based MMO. Now on a hexagon grid.
|
|
|
|
Features implemented:
|
|
|
|
* Basic combat.
|
|
** As in EW(O1), you simply walk at an enemy to harm it.
|
|
* Movement.
|
|
** EWO3 is turn-based, but with about 20 turns per second.
|
|
** Players have no walking speed limit but enemies do (though they move somewhat randomly).
|
|
* Procedural worldgen.
|
|
** Currently limited to a few "rocky outcrops" which obstruct movement.
|
|
* Digging holes (as minor obstruction).
|
|
* Items (dirt, bones).
|
|
** Dirt is from digging.
|
|
** Bones are from killing enemies.
|
|
** They do not do anything.
|
|
* The classic EW enemies (IBIS, KESTREL, SNAKE, EMU, OGRE, RAT) as well as a new powerful but rare MOA and the weird PLATYPUS.
|
|
** Platypi, as the natural choice for magic users, have a ranged attack.
|
|
|
|
Planned:
|
|
|
|
* Walls.
|
|
** You'll have to build a few tools to make them, and they will obstruct enemies (until they break).
|
|
** Probably we also want damage-dealing spikes or similar.
|
|
** Also no-spawning safe zones?
|
|
* Beacons/minimap.
|
|
** Build things to highlight where you are to other players.
|
|
* Player weaponry/ranged attacks/etc.
|
|
** Drop base damage but give players more options once they get tool use set up.
|
|
** Players should have other items, really.
|
|
* Crops (for healing).
|
|
** Plants will naturally grow in some places. They can also spread.
|
|
** To constrain growth, plants will detect when there are too many nearby, and/or run on some kind of system tracking soil nutrients and water.
|
|
*** Different crops will interact differently with these, forcing players to consider crop rotation etc.
|
|
** Maybe you can selectively breed them. It should not be that hard to give crops genetics.
|
|
** Trees (for a few other resources) are bigger and somewhat more obstructive crops.
|
|
* Worldgen rework.
|
|
** The world is statelessly generated from noise fields right now. If we want to have water/nutrients/etc for crops it should maybe be done in a unified and more realistic way using an "erosion" map generation algorithm on game start instead.
|
|
** Instead of impassable rocky areas, have contour lines/slopes instead. Maybe rivers.
|
|
* Basilisk (boss-ish enemy).
|
|
** Occupies multiple tiles.
|
|
** Starts unfinished. Asks players to feed it resources to grow with promise of rewards and threats.
|
|
** Will try to kill players who did not contribute to its construction when finished, as well as generally rampaging.
|
|
** People who help it get "nanomachines" or something which can help construction?
|
|
** The basilisk can talk to you using an LLM to convince you to help it.
|
|
* Color UI mode.
|
|
* More resources.
|
|
** Crops, trees, "digging around" in holes with better tools. |
