Howdy,

Check out http://seb.ly/demos/MMOsteroids.html in HTML 5

It is a big multiplayer Asteroids game, loads of fun.

It needs testing, so maybe time for it to get OCUK'ed Currently there era about 1700 connections and it is handling them well :-)

How come, they all turn on you sometimes? Surely they are ai and not players.

No they are all other players :-)

I think

Kenai · 1 Apr 2012 at 19:15

Not convinced they are all other players, if they were, they all elected to point directly at me and chase me and only me

Quite a cool idea but there is defiantly AI in there, when 20 turn on you all at once

Naffa · 1 Apr 2012 at 19:24

I'm pretty sure I just saw you guys in there.

Not happening for me, tries to connect but that's it.

Yeah probably too many connections, bumps me after a couple of seconds.

No way is that multiplayer.

Within 10 seconds they all ganged up on me and were in each corner, whichever way I went they all acted the same.

qqg3 · 1 Apr 2012 at 19:39

I'm not experiencing this "being ganged up on" folks.

Goates · 1 Apr 2012 at 19:42

All turned on me just then.

They seem to have forgotten the asteroids though.

Rich_L · 1 Apr 2012 at 19:44

The best thing about that is getting outside the cloud and blatting around through the gaps, I'm surprised I haven't met anyone else doing it

platinum87 · 1 Apr 2012 at 22:38

Every single triangle on here after a while of pretending to be fighting each other all turn and shoot at me in perfect symmetry.

sbi5ar · 1 Apr 2012 at 22:44

Not had them turn on me yet...

It is quite fun. I do see at who every one else is firing at and then chase that person

james.miller · 1 Apr 2012 at 22:46

must be AI lol

Van Hellseek · 1 Apr 2012 at 22:46

There aren't any asteroids. :confused:
