The C# implementation of the r2wars tournament competition

Tournament api from: https://github.com/otac0n/tournaments

Description

r2wars is a game similar to corewars, where 2 programs run on a shared memory space trying to catch each other in order to trash their code and make them crash.

This game was initially developed by pancake as a PoC in here

You can refer to the r2wars For N00bs talk from r2con2020 for more information:

Furthermore, you can find an explanation of the game in the first competition that happened during the 2nd r2con in 2017.

This repository contains an evolved implementation of the engine written in C# by SkUaTeR dropping the MFC requirement that was making it impossible to run outside Windows.

The solution was to use an embedded webserver that provides a web interface using websockets to stream the process changes from the M

Dependencies

  • .NET 10 SDK (to build) or ASP.NET Core Runtime 10 (to run a published build)
  • radare2

The Docker image pins radare2 6.2.0 and installs the checksummed amd64 or arm64 package from the official GitHub release.

Run the application from the repository root with:

dotnet run --project csharp/r2wars.csproj -- warriors

Then open http://127.0.0.1:9664/.

On Windows you need to have radare2.exe and rasm2.exe in the published application directory or in PATH.

On Mac/Linux/BSD, r2wars will try to find them in the PATH.
