17 Galaxies

A Proof of Concept for a clone of OGame built using Phoenix LiveView.

Note

This is an work in progress.

17 Galaxies is an early stage project meant as a demo of what Phoenix and LiveView can do. Expect bugs, features missing and other issues.

Features

• LiveView 1.0
• Phoenix PubSub

Trying it out

To start your Phoenix server:

• Run mix setup to install and setup dependencies
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server or inside IEx with iex -S mix phx.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.

Findings

• Erlang 26 and TLS changes has somewhat broken SMTP connection or made it significantly difficult
• The game needs a server to process events and Oban is sadly not a good fit for processing game events
