It's open source; somebody install it on another server so we can actually play... https://github.com/Elao/curvytron

I installed it but I get 404 on /js/dependencies.js. I'm not experienced with node.js and the like, what can I do?

If you need any help don't hesitate to contact the team :)

While I'm not going to comment on the programming side of this project[0], I'm going to say that it's very beautiful. Trully.

It runs beautifully on an i386 1.5GHz in surf browser. :)

/request_mode on mode with 90 degree turns. _Exactly_ like Tron. :p /request_mode off

[0]: just because I only want to experience this from a purely user perspective and I'm enjoying it.

Thanks!

very nice. suggestions: 1 - a stronger indicator of which point is you (the arrow at the beginning is not enough) 2 - control instructions (it wasn't obvious you had to use the keyboard arrows, also because of (1). 3 - if the room is crowded, the game will never start as long people keep joining. Put a timer or similar. 4 - i've seen some 90 degrees turns, probably because of lag or similar. it is probably a bug you…

the arrow is enough

I followed the installation doc, everything seems fine and the server starts (node bin/curvytron.js).

When I access the server I get an error page. I looked at the browser log and it shows 404 for /js/dependencies.js.

I thought it was because I set it up behind apache but wget localhost:curvy_port/js/dependencies.js also yields 404.

I don't exactly know how to contact the team about this since I can't say it's a bug so I thought opening a github issue about it would be bad form.

Did you run these 3 commands? - npm install - bower install - gulp

Can you check if the file web/js/dependencies.js exists in the game folder?
