Dungeons Archive is a fan site for the game Dungeons , a strategy/simulation video game developed by Realmforge Studios.
The game gives players control of a Dungeon Lord, whereby they create and rule a dungeon to harvest the soul energy from would be heroes.
Dungeons included a powerful modding interface using Lua and C# which provided the focus for Dungeons Archive. Intended to be a home for mods or maps that would be created by the community alongside a online leader board which was given post game statistics by a leader board mod.
phpNights MVC Framework
The phpNights framework provides a MySQL wrapper and template system but was extended to provide wiki functionality utilising the Media wiki syntax.
Only the basic syntax of Media wiki is supported at this time excluding images due to the variety of formatting they can accept.
Game Guide
A large portion of game information has not been added to the wiki due to a lack of participation from the already small Dungeons community. However the wiki is available to be edited by anyone, so there is still hope someone will take it upon themselves to complete more information.
API and Game Data
Dungeons API documentation was provided in XML format. To better display this and provide wiki pages for all main items it was parsed and stored into the website database.
Alongside the API details a number of game data files (i.e. map information) were also parsed to populate the database with such information.
Leader board
Dungeons provide no multiplayer or online score board of its own. So a key design area for the Dungeons site was to include one.
The leader board submission mod was created in using Lua and C# and was done before the official API documentation was released.
The data is collected on the 'post game' phase of Dungeons and submitted using a HTTP Post request to the Dungeons Archive site.
