2 player flash

[SaintSilver]

Heyy wouldn't it be interesting if we could make a two player flash sex game ? Is it possible

[OwnerOfSuccuby]

All is possible =) But who will make it ?

I little do not understand the idea - 2 players game from one PC or 2 players game through the internet ? What Kind of game should it be ?

2 player through the internet =] say if I wanted to play a naughty game with someone. All flash here is amazing but only 1 player

You could have one person in control of the keyboard and the other with the mouse. That way two people aren't cramped up trying to use the keyboard at the same time. There's also the fact that some keyboards can't handle multiple keys pressed simultaneously so that would limit some pairs. Not to mention this way frees up a hand for both of you...
EDIT: And the approved post clarified things. I don't have remotely enough knowledge of Flash to make an online game.

Flash supports TCP sockets, so you can create a connection to another computer that way. It would be fraught with issues, however, as NATs would interrupt most direct connections. Using a central server to set up connections would work better, but there would still be challenges. Once you've managed to create a connection, you have the additional complexity of making the clients synchronize and function properly.

tl;dr: 2 player online games are hard.

Pawn is a good example of a multiplayer flash game.

Yes they are hard - but in another way it is good exp. I was always interested how to connect 2 players to each other, but for now I do not know how it works. I have one stupid idea how it is possible to make through PHP for example - but it is very stupid idea =)))

For example we have text file for player 1 and 2 - where we put some values on server. It will let us to read and move objects on different PC. But how connect one player derectly to another or how to let a lot of players play the game - still is a big question for me.

Would need a central server or (ideally for flash) website to make it work. You COULD peer to peer it like Zeus said, but that would be a logistical nightmare.
