Two player mobile pong using secure mqtt I made a few months ago.
Today I tested my group playing mode while at family to celebate xmas.
I was filming during testing to get responses. I can’t post this because of everyone being in the shot.
What worked:
- Response of multiple mobile phones was good
- Measuring average movement worked great
(3 People moving up and one down? – going up) - 8 Players tested
To do:
- Iphones have a problem sending tilt, I’ve got a problem with Iphones in general 🙂
- Screen timeout, I have to add javascript to keep the mobile device screen on. No problem
- Number of players on the left and number of players on the right visible in the screen. Do-able
- Timeout for disapearing phones! ..
- QR join code on the play screen
- Starting ball futher away from paddle, to give player more time to react
Nice to have:
- Muliple games at the same time. Now hard coded.
