• Hard-coded players.
• Can use many types of players.
  • AI player.

  • Sample websocket based UI/client.

  • Python client: https://github.com/uiri/bombermanpy.
  • Java client: https://github.com/aybabtme/bombjava.
  • Ruby client: https://github.com/dylanahsmith/bombermanrb.
  • ... make your own client!

Making your own client.

You have two choices to implement a client for the language of your choice. Both are usable at this time, however the TCP interface should be prefered, simply because I don't forecast major changes in it's working.

• Use the TCP interface, docs here. bombermanpy uses this.
• Use the websocket interface.

Implementing native players.

Go

You can implement a native Go player if you respect the player.Player interface:

type Player interface {
    Name() string
    Move() <-chan Move
    Update() chan<- State
}

Details of Move, State and Player.

Lua

If there's enough demand for it, I might be able to embed a Lua VM in the bomberman server and make it possible to run native Lua players.
