Hollow is Online! Making Text Based RPGs more accessible.
Game Title: Hollow
Playable Link: https://hollowonline.com
Platform: Text-based MMORPG
Description: Set in a post-apocalyptic world, the basic idea is to bring back some of the classic text-based gameplay, but make it a little more accessible. Many titles in this genre require an immense amount of research and extra tools in order to have fun in the world. I am trying to open up many of those tools right away (mechanics, commands, helpers, etc.) so that there isn't as much of the research to develop a character. This is very much a beta project and will see many updates and changes, but your feedback is very welcome.
Some updates from last post:
- Incroporating dungeon-style play in some areas within the game, creating individual indstances for groups.
- Added weather atmospheres, including no-visability weather that minimizes information displayed to the user (this only happens 1.5% of the time, so quite rare)
- Improved some of the vitals tracking and messaging
- Cleaned up a few bugs
Notes:
- I am working on a good Discord / Twitch workflow for login, but it isn't currently up yet.
- Many of the messaged to other characters in the room (other than your own) are still a little buggy.
- Spells only consist of a basic spell for each class, but I will start working on more advance spells for higher levels.
Free to Play Status: Free to play!
Involvement: I am a solo developer in putting this together.
