MOBA - A community-made RPG built with LiveView
Hey folks,
For the past year I’ve been building a game as a side project to learn LiveView, and in preparation for ElixirConf decided to turn it open source so that it can serve as a starting point for everyone else who wishes to learn LiveView as well and wants to go beyond the simple counter demos that you usually find: https://github.com/pedromtavares/moba
The project is a working product and is currently deployed in production at https://browsermoba.com, so it’s a very hands-on learning experience. Regarding complexity, I was careful to keep the initial version simple enough that everyone can jump in regardless of their Elixir skill level and still have fun.
If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to comment on the issue at https://github.com/pedromtavares/moba/issues/90 to let me know you want to participate.
Have a great ElixirConf!

Nicely done @pedromtavares!
Since LiveView’s release, I’ve been considering using it to rewrite some projects, mainly PBBG games I’ve built int the past. LV is such a good fit for this kind of application. Thanks for sharing your work with us, I’ll certainly take a look at it.

Thank you! It was a great UX learning experience for me as it’s not my strongest skill, nice to see people are enjoying it.
Internationalization is definitely a good idea, in fact, I’m not an english speaking native so I would directly benefit from this to translate it to my language (brazillian portuguese). If this is something you’re interested in tackling I’d definitely encourage you to do so 
However, for the time being, I think you can get away with a Google translate on the entire page (if you use Chrome), it’s got quite smart in the past few years and certainly a good tool to take advantage of for being a web-based game.

Sounds like a MOBA I could get into
