Multiplayer game creation is a topic that has come up a few times and I’ve mentioned some frameworks for creating real-time WIFI multiplayer games and I have mentioned a tutorial showing how to take a very simplistic game and add multiplayer using Game Kit.
Recently I came across a recently completed tutorial series showing how to create a multiplayer card game (in this case the classic card game Snap) with both bluetooth, and wifi multiplayer covering everything in much more depth than previously mentioned tutorials. The entire game is created with UIKit no game engine is used.
Here’s a video of several devices running the tutorial in action:
You can find the tutorial by Matthijs Hollemans in 7 parts here:
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7.
A very in-depth guide on creating a high quality game. If you’ve wanted to learn how to create a card game and/or a turn based game then you will enjoy checking it out.
