Project Description

I decided to make this project while searching for a job to pass the time and improve my Software Engineering skills.

Fortezza Tactics Online is a turn based pvp strategy tactics game inspired by games such as:

• Fire Emblem
• Advance Wars
• Triangle Strategy
• Final Fantasy Tactics

How I Made It

Fortezza Tactics Online was created using a combination of tools and technologies, including:

• Node and Express backend using TypeScript
• Server Side Rendering using EJS templating
• NoSQL database to store user account information and sessions
• Gameplay rendering using HTML canvas element
• Client-Server communication using WebSockets

Future Plans

Looking ahead, I plan to continue working on this project incrementally. Some of the things I would like to include are:

• Ranked Mode
• VS AI Mode
• Full Gamepad Support
• Add Complexity and Depth
• Steam Release (?)

Stay tuned for updates!
