My next web project. Omok Online

Disclaimer:
So I have been thinking of making an
online omok game modeled after maple story’s version. I've only really thought about doing this
semester. Other than ideas in my mind and practice in web design there is
very little done towards this goal.

I want to keep this kind of low key right now, I’m only
making this thread so I can write my ideas down and such in a single place and maybe get some small amounts of feedback.

The Goal:
Create a webpage that perfectly simulates the rules and
style of game play maple story uses in there mini game ‘Omok’. I also intend to expand upon the options available
to add a little bit of extra flavor and fun to the game.

Site Features:
- Custom User Accounts.
- Overall Ranking.
- Creating / Searching Game tables.

Game Features:
- Real time play.
- Real time chat.
- Spectator Support
- Pause Button
- Fully visible game board after game is won/defeated.
- Board Highlighter to aid discussion about the game.
- Varying timer settings.
(Different length turns, overall time clock like in chess, or no timer).

Design:
I designed this in photo shop a few minutes ago, this is an
idea of what the board will look like. As
you can see it will look a lot like the game in maple story with a few changes. Also some additional options are not shown
here.

Spoiler:

Once again I have not started programing this and it would a long time until it would ever be open to the public if I actually compleat this.

Wow, that's neat. I would love to play that once it's done....if you ever finish it...>_>
