"Medusa" is an unnamed generic text based game engine.
Note until version 1, the master branch is unstable and is not ready for production
For years I have been developing text based games, ranging from some of the top browser based games, to little indie games, throughout my time I have yet to come across a sufficient engine.
There are a few things that I required when searching
- Documentation
- Security
- Modular
This framework intends to solve these issues.
Thought there are a few out there such as MCCodes they didn't fit my required needs.
Medusa is based upon the Laravel framework and provides huge flexibility in what a module can do. The core of the framework will be in the current repository, while modules will be in a separate one to be created later on.
So what can you do with Medusa?
The hope is that you can build games such as Torn, Omerta, Sryth or even Reign of Blood.
Though each of those are very different, they all rely on the same core mechanics
When will be the first release?
Unknown at this time, we hope to get this going in the next few months, the core still requires a mass amount of work, I want to get the administration side of things to be as automated as possible when generating a new module, but a lot of work left to do.
What tools/frameworks are used to build Medusa?
