    We learned how to create an interactive shooting game. We took advantage of Flutter’s dialogs to create a quick and easy lobby and post-game UI. Then we created the game using Flame. We learned how to detect and handle collisions and experienced how easy creating a sophisticated game was using Flame. Finally, we added capabilities to share game states with other clients to complete a real-time multiplayer experience without managing our own infrastructure using Supabase.

  • flame

    A Flutter based game engine.

    Flutter is a UI library to build apps that run on any platform, but it can also build interactive games thanks to an open-source game engine built on top of Flutter called Flame. Flame takes care of things like collision detection or loading image sprites to bring game development to all the Flutter devs. We can take it a step further to introduce real-time communication features so that players can play against each other in real-time.

  • SurveyJS
