Melee Online

This was my first attempt at creating a melee program for Java. Unfortunately what I did for internet communication would not have worked, (I think I have something figured out now). The new melee program will need a server to work (Definition: Somebody willing to leave computer on till after the battle). Since this is being created in Java, it will also be portable. It features MultiPlayer Combat (Probably simular to how subspace was made). All I have is 1/2 a supox ship, but easy to program in more. I will probably not work on this until Distant Empires is near completion and in need of an online melee program (It cannot depend on server due to speed requiraments) so if their are any people out their familiar with Internet Programming, I Need Your Help.

Java Applet Demo

I have been working on a applet verson of my melee (bit easier when written in same language) While not finished, should give you an idea about how it will work

Stage: 2 Player
Progress: Creating Ships. Finish Status Bars. Add background stars
Next Stage: 2 Player Internet
Next Stage: Multiplayer
Next Stage: Multiplayer Internet
Java Melee Demo
Note: may not work with all internet browsers. Tested on Internet Explorer, but I couldnt get it working in Netscape.

If you want to see what I am doing with it (unappleted), go here Online Java Melee
