Harken back to ye-olden days, when the need for high adventure was combined with the reigning technology of the 56-K modem to produce the most advanced online entertainment of its day: the text-based multiplayer adventure game!*
Now you can indulge your nostalgia with ShinyMUD, a fledgling text-based adventure game based on the Multi-User-Dungeons of old, written entirely in Python. Our intention is to create a code-base that's easy to extend, edit, and develop, so that you can create the game you always wanted to play.
See below to connect to our game server to see what we're up to, or download our code-base to develop and host your very own game.
*yes, we're being funny. But seriously, hyperbole aside, those were awesome.
host: IncendiarySoftware.com
port: 4111
Awesome! You can use your favorite telnet client to connect to the latest version of ShinyMUD using the host and port above. For more information on connecting or telnet clients, see HelpConnect Connecting to ShinyMUD. For help on playing the game, see the other guides below.
