Who Plays the Player? by harko12
The concept here was that you as a Player were in the 'world'. But in another 'world', another player sees your world as just a board game they can play. And in your world, there are board games of other worlds that YOU can play.
Sadly, I ran out of time to get it all working, but right now you can start a game, and then connect to it with another copy of the .exe and see it as a board game, which is a good step towards the final concept.
In order to try it out, grab the EXE, then run a copy. Choose 'start server' then join server. Then start another copy, and just pick join server. The first copy will be the 'world' view, and the second copy will be the boardgame view of that world. If you move your character around in the 'world', his piece will move on the board.

Hope you learned a lot while doing this. Also I really love the graphics.
- You lack of sound
- Pure multiplayer for LD is not reccomended (I mean you can hardly get to play with someone else, so you do not get the full idea of the game!)
- It is kinda weird when the third player joins?
- Mouse look is annoying
In general game is not bad but lacks lots of things, idea is awesome though!
And please do not take this comment the wrong way, it is just some constructive criticism! ;)
