MUSH 2021

What is MUSH 2021

MUSH 2021 is a modern take on MUSH servers, which where a popular text only multiplayer online platform system allowing for the creation of various role playing and casual game and social systems. What made MUSH unique was it's object based in game creation model which allowed for the creation of any world or worlds one could imagine. The idea with this project is to that that original concept of unlimited imagination and bring it to a more modern realization. The primary interface to this modern MUSH will be the web browser, this will allow for a rich experience using modern HTML, CSS, and Javascript for client side UI, and utilize websockets for direct server connection. MUSH 2021 will use LUA as the in game scripting language allowing for a full creation of the world from within.

Current State of Development

MUSH 2021 is currently in the very beginning idea / tinkering stage. This means that I have started a base code project, and started to experiment with ideas on how I wish to create the MUSH engine and operate the core mechanics. I wish for this to be an open source project from the very beginning and so hence why I am even bothering to mention this so early on.

Please note that at this state of development if you see this README with this text that means you are looking at this code very early on, so anything you see is highly subject and likely to change :).
