• Multiplayer DOOR/MPL Games on Mystic

    From xqtr@21:1/111 to All on Monday, June 05, 2017 21:18:46
    Is there any multiplayer DOOR games or even MPL game? I mean, a game that all online players in the BBS could play simultaneously. I had an idea of making
    a card game (poker), but i don't know if it exists all ready.

    I have not seen one. I really hadn't been looking either... :)

    If you do write something, I'd be willing to help you test it out.

    I haven't seen anything written in MPL but I've heard of old dos based
    door games that supposedly supported player vs player type activity. I never got into it because I only had one line for most of my dial up career. A
    poker game would be fun, let me know if you need a beta tester. :)

    Yeah I never looked at multiline doors for that same reason. I wouldn't mind having something like Scrabble. In the mid 1990s, there was a Windows based Scrabble game that worked over networks - it was designed for LAN use, but could be made to work over the Internet. That was a lot of fun, with a side channel on IRC to chat. :) A Scrabble type BBS door could be fun too, even more so if it could be networked between different boards (given the low user numbers many have).

    I haven't seen one that allows simultaneous players. I think it would be difficult to get enough people online to play, but it would be pretty cool thing to do if the people were there!

    Its certainly possible to do.

    FWIW, I've been working on my Link's World, which is a rouge-like Zelda-Like MUSH that will portray players in the same room and will allow players to
    chat with each other.

    That sounds interesting. Keep me posted as to when you have it done, as I'd like to take a look at it. :)

    Actually, it's playable now. It's in the Gryphon's Lab section of Cyberia.
