a text MMORPG - Modern mud on Steam
Hi everyone,
First of all, sorry if this feels like self-promotion. I've spent a long time building this and I'm genuinely excited to share it with people who love MUDs as much as I do. I hope that's okay here.
I tried to put on /mud but get banned, looks like you can't promote your game T.T. Hope in this one have more lucky xD
For a while now I've been working on Modern MUD. The goal is to keep the heart of a MUD (reading, exploring, typing your commands) while giving it a more modern look and feel: pixel-art illustrations for rooms and characters, a clean interface, and windows for things like examining, combat and dialogue. You can still type everything, and commands matter, but the game helps you instead of getting in your way.
There are four classes for now, the classics: Warrior, Rogue, Explorer and Mage, each with its own way of playing. Rogues can hide, pick pockets and disarm traps, explorers track and hunt, and so on.
The story takes place in Shadi Vanam, a small village where something isn't quite right. You'll get to know its people, uncover what's happening to them, and dig into the secrets the town is hiding. Choose a god to follow, and be careful: the village remembers what you do.
This is only the first island. I'll keep expanding the story and improving the game step by step, and your feedback is a huge part of that.
If you'd like to try it, the playtest is open right now on Steam. Just request access and you can start playing straight away. Any feedback, good or bad, is more than welcome.
Thanks for reading!
