Working on dialog interactions for my #mud engine, adjusting to the capabilities of the tested MUD clients.
xterm.js based clients like Lociterm or MudForge are still a bit buggy and in one case the unicode characters are not rendered very good, but all in […]

We finally released a new version of our tile-map #mud engine, with several new features. It is still a long way to go to provide a smooth experience for interested developers, but working on the technology was fun.
