📰 Dev.to · Tomer Levy
Learn to separate game logic from rendering in a Bomberman clone by keeping the game server agnostic to sprites
Action Steps
- Separate game logic from rendering by creating a distinct layer for each
- Use a data-driven approach to define game objects and their properties
- Keep the game server focused on game state management, without knowledge of sprites or rendering details
- Implement a rendering engine that can interpret game state data and render the game accordingly
- Test and iterate on the separation of concerns to ensure a maintainable and scalable architecture
