Hi everyone! :waving_hand:

I recently finished developing my very first HTML5 game as a solo indie dev, and I wanted to share it with this awesome community. It’s called Fold War.

It’s a digital recreation of the classic “pen-and-paper” war game many of us used to play hidden in the back of the classroom.

:video_game: How it works:

  • Deployment: You deploy your army (tanks, ships, jets) on your half of the screen.

  • Attack Mechanic: You draw target dots on your side, and click “Attack!”. The screen literally “folds” in half to transfer your hits to the enemy’s side.

  • Strict Hits: Only exact hits on the vehicle bounds count. Friendly fire is also active!

  • Game Modes: Solo (vs AI), Practice, and real-time Online Multiplayer (built using PeerJS & Firebase).

  • Special Abilities: Hitting mystery boxes unlocks abilities like Shields, Double Taps, and Unit Restoration.

Since this is my very first development project, I built it to learn the ropes of web game development and real-time multiplayer syncing.

I would absolutely love to hear your feedback, thoughts on the mechanics, or any bugs you might find. Thank you for checking it out! :rocket:

Interesting little game, I like the UI, did you use anything special for that?

Thank you so much for playing the game! I really appreciate the kind words about the UI. I didn’t use any special frameworks or tools for it—just pure HTML and custom CSS to keep it simple and clean. Thanks again for checking it out! :rocket:
