A web based Platform designed with an "One Piece" theme to provide an immersive and engaging gaming experience. It is centered around the classic Pong game, but with multiple enhancements such as multiplayer functionality, customization options, hardened configuration, and more. The platform also introduces a variety of robust user features (like history tracking and matchmaking), and several infrastructure and security improvements.
The project is designed to be scalable, accessible, and user-friendly, supporting a wide range of user preferences. It also incorporates a modern architecture using microservices and DevOps tools to ensure high performance and maintainability.
-
Remote Multiplayer
Play classic Pong with friends across different devices, regardless of location. Our network-optimized system is designed to handle real-world challenges like latency, packet loss, and intermittent disconnections while maintaining a smooth gameplay experience. -
Beyond 1v1: Multiplayer Expansion
Experience new ways to enjoy Pong with support for more than two players. Choose from creative, non-traditional layouts—like a 4-player battle on a square or circular board—for dynamic and chaotic matches that keep the gameplay fresh.
-
Power-ups and Special Maps
Inject fun and strategy into each game with power-ups like speed boosts, ball splitters, shields, and more. Choose from various maps with unique layouts and obstacles for a tailored game experience. -
Minimalist Mode
Prefer the good old Pong? Opt for the default, simplified version for pure, distraction-free gameplay without bells and whistles.
-
Smart Matchmaking
Automatically pair players based on skill level and performance, ensuring balanced and engaging matches for everyone. -
Player Progress & Stats
Track wins, losses, high scores, longest rallies, and more. Build your profile and watch your skills grow over time with detailed analytics and historical records.
-
Enterprise-Grade Protection
Using ModSecurity (WAF), the platform is safeguarded from common web-based threats, including SQL injection, XSS, and DDoS attacks. -
Secure Secrets Management
All sensitive data (API keys, DB credentials, environment variables) are securely managed using HashiCorp Vault, with strong encryption and access policies. -
Modern Authentication Stack
Users are protected through JWT-based session management, and 2FA adds an extra layer of login security.
-
Microservices-Based Architecture
The backend is composed of independently deployable services, making the platform highly modular, scalable, and easier to maintain. -
Comprehensive Logging with ELK Stack
Real-time log aggregation, monitoring, and visualization using Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana. -
Containerized Deployment
Microservices are containerized for efficient deployment, scaling, and orchestration across environments.
- 3D Experience with Three.js
The classic game receives a modern facelift with 3D visuals, lighting effects, animations, and immersive environments powered by Three.js.
-
Browser Compatibility & Language Support
Play on all modern browsers with a responsive UI and multilingual support to cater to global audiences. -
Server-Side Rendering (SSR)
Improve SEO, load times, and accessibility with pre-rendered content delivered server-side.
- Smooth, Centralized Game Control
Core gameplay logic, including ball movement, physics, collision detection, and scoring, runs on the server for consistent, cheat-resistant multiplayer interactions.
This project spans full-stack development, game design, DevOps, and security. Here's a breakdown of the tools and technologies:
- HTML/CSS/JavaScript – Building the responsive UI and game canvas.
- Three.js – Rendering dynamic 3D graphics and animations in the browser.
- Django – Server-side logic for gameplay, user authentication, and API endpoints.
- RESTful APIs – Structured API design for extensibility and third-party integrations.
- WebSocket – Real-time communication for synchronous multiplayer gameplay.
- PostgreSQL – Persistent storage for users, match history, and performance data.
- Redis – In-memory data store for quick access and game state synchronization.
- Microservices – Decoupled services for modularity and performance.
- ELK Stack (Elastic, Logstash, Kibana) – Real-time monitoring, analytics, and diagnostics.
- Containerization – Docker for deployment, environment consistency, and scalability.
- HashiCorp Vault – Encryption and secure management of secrets.
- JWT & OAuth – Token-based authentication for secure, scalable user sessions.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) – Optional, but recommended, user identity verification.
- Server-Side Rendering (SSR) – Fast page loads and better SEO performance, especially for multilingual support.
