        MMORPG Performance

        All packets sent to the client are minimized (only a few bytes). Lags are anticipated with motion interpolation and client-side prediction.

        • Low Bandwidth
        • Client-Side Prediction

        Using VueJS for user interfaces

        VueJS allows to create rich interfaces with a component-oriented structure. Create your menus with VueJS or use existing modules to display pre-built menus.

        • Prebuilt GUI (dialog box, main menu, shop menu, etc.

          Thought for the RPG

          Don't create an API from scratch but take advantage of several commands on an event or player to set up a ready-made scenario

          • Items API
          • Classes API
          • States & Elements API
          • Skills API
          • Parameters API (hp, sp, etc.)
          • Gold API
          • Effetcs API
          • Damage calculation
          image

          Unlimited creativity

          Modify sprites, server, etc.

            With same code: MMORPG or RPG

            Don't learn two different styles. Write a code and render it, either offline for an RPG or online for an MMORPG.
