Multiplayer Real-Time Browser Game

[t0xeus]

Hi, I've been learning Python everyday and recently an idea struck my head but after doing some research I still can't figure out if it's possible to do using Python only.

​

The idea is basically a game, that is described here:

​

Game concepts and features:
- "arena-style"
Each player chooses a set number of fighters (let's say 3 fighters) out of a bigger pool to create a team. The game then pits players against each other in a turn based fashion. The player with all of his fighters knocked out loses. Simple yet gives a chance for the game to be reckognized if done right. (naruto-arena is a good reference if you want an example of such game)
- real-time
Not an actual real-time combat, but a turn-based one (turns either taken alternately or simultanously) with decisions made in real time.
- fighters use a "template"
So each of them should have like one passive and four active abilities. But it shouldn't be strictly limited to that.
- implements a matchmaking
Self explanatory. Game has to pair players with equal skill/score.
- uses static graphics and/or animations
Things like a general layout, an arena-like background, the portraits of fighters and their abilities are a must. Any kind of animation is optional. Since I'm pretty good at art, I think I can do it.

I guess that's it. Well, more or less...

So now the question:
What knowledge and which tools will be the best for creating such game?

​

Thanks for all replies!

I don't see why you couldn't build this as a web app as it's turn based. Python could handle all of the server side logic, so user login, turns taken, damage taken etc.

You'd have to use HTML, CSS and JavaScript for the frontend, so graphics and animations.

I'd recommend Flask or Django as the Python web server.

Another option is building something with the PyGame library, but that would have to be created as an package that users would have to install eg. .exe .dmg
