JOGRE (open source)

[Tami]

[url=\"http://jogre.sourceforge.net/main.htm\"]JOGRE[/url] (Java Online Gaming Real-time Engine) is an open-source, online, real-time gaming engine and API programmed entirely in Java.

By using JOGRE it is easy to create powerful multi-player games which people can join from anywhere in the world. JOGRE is designed to be an open-source equivalent to popular gaming websites such as Yahoo! Games.

As of the Alpha 0.2 JOGRE release, there is a single server which can handle multiple games. A user can then play a game such as chess which connects to a server. This user can then play against other users from around the world easily in real time. Users can create public tables where anyone can join or private tables where users must be invited.

Our mission is to create the worlds largest and best open-source multi-player games site which will rival Yahoo! Games, MSN Games and other major non open-source gaming websites.

Using the JOGRE API, games will be easily created, hosted and eventually played by thousands of users from around the world.

Our focus is not in creating cutting edge graphical games, but rather concentrating on the multi-player experience in board/card/arcade style games.

The JOGRE API is being designed so that all the multi-player functionality, player chat, server communication is taken care of, so all that needs to be implemented is the actual game.
