Here is my attempt on how the look-and-feel of a mud could be turned into a single-player game.  Apologies in advance to Netscape and Opera users: perhaps some brave soul will adapt it to make it work with your browser, for now you'll need to use a copy of IE




What do you all think?

Just a couple of quick legal points, which is slightly off-topic, but perhaps of interest to other developers of custom codebases.  When connecting to your game, you state:

Jewel of Jeopardy, and JavascriptMUD ( c ) 2002 Mike Beaudry

Written and placed into public domain by Mike Beaudry.  You may freely copy this program and modify it to your heart's content, provided you distribute it with this copyright notice intact.


Firstly, "( c )" has no legal meaning.

Secondly. placing something into the public domain means you give up your copyright - in other words, people can do whatever they like with your code.  You cannot place restrictions on them if you do this.

Hey, that's pretty neat =).

I'm playing right now and having quite a bit of mindless fun.

Thanks for sharing this, Jornel!

Heh. Good fun. Minor niggles though:

1) A time delay between each battle round would be helpful- by the looks of it, a really long fight would scroll your screen all the way down, preventing you from viewing its progress.
2) After the death of a mob, the prompt could be echoed, meaning people can view their hitpoints after a fight.

Otherwise, nice work.

Lots of fun, though I'd add some sort of message once you beat the Goblinissimo to tell you that you're done. I kept looking for the next part, or for the western gate to open, or for the Guildmaster to say something to me. But I loved it.

Oh, and you need to give the battleaxe some word-stats. It keeps saying that it was undefined.

Good job, man.

I like it, but what is the goal exactly? Once you kill the big goblin dude, is there more to do?
