I started playing around with GWT since version 1.3 just fooling around with the code and trying out some various things. One thing I did was starting to develop a browser game, so I could see how things worked out in a real application instead of just mocking up some fancy gadgets.
Well, one thing led to another and now it is starting to look like an actual application. You can find it on http://lacesfirst.com It is an online football manager game where you can manage a football team. You can train players, hire employees, change formations and tactics, sell/buy players, change the lineup of your team, upgrade your stadium/ shops etc. The games are simulated every day at specified times and take into account the tactics and linup of your team (and the opponents' team). The teams and players are all fictional and randomly generated, as there is no way I want to get into licencing troubles with the NFL ofcourse. One thing to notice is that the entire game (client and server code) is made of 100% Java (Using EJB3on server side). This made it possible to have just one servlet containing about 40 lines of code that just calls a SessionBean on the EJB server. Also the code of the data model is used in both client and server side, so no extra DTO objects were needed. All this makes the code very slim and manageble. It is not exactly a UI that you would find in a typical GWT application though... The game is still in beta as there are many things that can be made better, but it is playable anyway. Have fun!
