The Mere Project

Introduction

Welcome to the MERE project. This project has been dead for such a long time. However I'm going to try and bring it back to life, with a slightly different focus. I want it to be a network-multiplayer game, where each user agent is both client and server. Each area of the game is served by a different computer (or it may be the same) and if one computer logs off, it transfers its responsibilities to another. The concept that anyone can inject objects into the game world still stands, and the game will maintain state as long as at least one agent is connected.

The project came from an original idea here, which was to develop:

An RPG with persistent state, so that actions are remembered across games
Extensible via different chapters
Various levels of collaboration; from adding new scripted objects, to an entirely stand-alone game which is linked only by a common save file format.

At the moment, there's not much to see here; if you'd like to join in, please contact me on this address and I will add you to the developers list.
