This mini game was developed as part of a challenge with the following instructions:
- Using Phaser3, create a 2D pixel mini-game that demonstrates knowledge of arcade physics, sprite sheets, loading assets externally and communication between scenes.
- Using NodeJS, create a backend server that communicates with the mini game in real time.

This project handles Font and Bakend so to run it locally you'd just need to:
npm install
npm run start
npm run server
The goal of the game is pretty simple, you have to hit the enemy pirate.
Left mouse click to select the square where you want to move (you can only move to squares you can get to walking) Right mouse click to select the enemy square where you want to shoot your cannon at.
The most relevant concepts beside the Phaser3 specifics are:
This feature allows the user to create and join "parties". The communication then, is between players inside the same party
Each player has 10 seconds to make their move and they both move and shoot at the same time.
The current implementation uses Dijkstra's A* algorithm to find the best possible path
