The Hunger Games WoW Project
[paragraph:1wfg1q1l]The Hunger Games project is a server that is built around a single game mode. It utilises a Warcraft 3 styled interface for matchmaking inspired by the old . This is the only game mode that can be played on the server.[/paragraph:1wfg1q1l]
[paragraph:1wfg1q1l]Upon starting a game, every player starts as the same generic class with equal stats and items at random locations on the map. The objective is to be the last person standing as you only have one life. There is a lot of PvE content within the island that will help you make your character stronger in order to defeat other players.[/paragraph:1wfg1q1l]
[paragraph:1wfg1q1l]Players can use and unlock 'perks'. Each player can have up to 4 perks which will benefit them in a game. A image of perk selection can be seen below:[/paragraph:1wfg1q1l]

[paragraph:1wfg1q1l]A day and night cycle (24 hours) takes 20 minutes exactly to pass in the game. There are different mechanics and perks that will benefit you at certain times of the day.[/paragraph:1wfg1q1l]
[paragraph:1wfg1q1l]This project is a small and casual one. The primary objective is to get the first map done and playable with ranked and unranked play and leaderboards. This project is great because it can be extended easily with updates, such as allowing for different map selection and new mechanics and features.[/paragraph:1wfg1q1l]

Kiun:
Amazing job!

All of this just editing server source files and MPQs? No custom WoW.exe build?

A custom WoW executable binary is required to allow for edits to the FrameXML and GlueXML files.

Sho:

Errr, no. Not at all. This is written from scratch. Last time I looked at the DoTA WoW files they were too difficult to understand due to a lack of commenting and a complicated structure. And I haven't had those files for over a year.

If you compare the videos, the interfaces are actually very different.
