Screeps: World is an open source MMO RTS sandbox game for programming enthusiasts, wherein the core mechanic is programming your units AI. You control your colony by writing JavaScript which operates 24/7 in the single persistent open world filled by other players on par with you.
This revolutionary MMO transforms programming into interactive gameplay. Players control their entire colony exclusively through JavaScript code, creating an autonomous AI that operates continuously, even during offline periods.
Write JavaScript to command units called "creeps". Program units to harvest resources, build structures, defend territories, and expand colonies. Operate within a persistent world shared by multiple player AIs. Success hinges entirely on code quality and algorithmic efficiency.
Developers must craft sophisticated algorithms for dynamic resource management across multiple rooms, intelligent expansion strategies using minimal CPU cycles, adaptive defense mechanisms against unpredictable player attacks, efficient pathfinding through complex terrain, and dynamic resource allocation prioritizing critical tasks.
Begin with a single room containing basic harvesting units. Incrementally unlock advanced structures like terminals, labs, and power spawns. Evolve AI complexity through continuous code refinement. Compete using increasingly intelligent autonomous systems.
Navigate strict 10-20 CPU processing time limits. Optimize code to maximize operational efficiency. Predict and handle unexpected inter-script interactions. Develop self-healing and self-expanding code structures.
Practical JavaScript programming experience, advanced system design techniques, algorithmic problem-solving skills, real-time debugging of autonomous behaviors, and deep understanding of distributed computing principles.
Global programmer network providing collaborative support, comprehensive API documentation, WebAssembly support for multiple programming languages, and open-source development philosophy encouraging innovation.
Unprecedented engagement for programming enthusiasts, visualizes code functionality in real-time strategy environment, offers continuous skill improvement, and creates memorable moments of algorithmic triumph and failure.
Programming hobbyists and professionals, strategy game enthusiasts, logical problem solvers, individuals fascinated by AI and automation, and patient learners committed to iterative improvement.
This simulator transcends traditional gaming, transforming coding into an immersive, competitive experience that challenges players to develop increasingly sophisticated autonomous systems.
