I will starting work on a new tutorial series, Dragon’s Claw. Dragon’s Claw is a text based, turn based strategic RPG. It is in a sci-fi setting but it could easily be converted to a fantasy setting. It is entirely web based. I used the MVC pattern when developing it. Once you get to the game portion it is a single page application. All communication with the server is done using AJAX. Things that I used include jQuery, LESS and Font Awesome. Font Awesome is completely optional but jQuery is required so if you don’t know it you will need to brush up on it. You can get away with using plain CSS instead of LESS. You would just need to use hard coded values instead of variables. I didn’t use any functions so that shouldn’t be an issue.

I will likely be alternating tutorials between Shadow Monsters and Dragon’s Claw for a while. First I plan on finishing handling multiple resolutions in the game. After that I will probably publish my first Dragon’s Claw tutorial as I want to work on that too.
