A fun multiplayer browser-based online spaceship-themed game using React as frontend, Node.js as backend, Firebase as cloud database and SockJS for realtime communication. We also used redux-firestore for accessing data easily.
In this game, user can register and log in and create customized personal profile (including avatar, bio and spaceship color) and check other player's profile.
Hunt: user plays himself and try to hunt as many points as possible in one minutes by getting fuels and shooting asteroids through basic keyboard control.
Battle: user joins game with another player and try to beat each other in one minute.
