What is a M.U.D?
-In computer gaming, a MUD (Multi-User Dungeon), is a multi-user real-time virtual world described entirely in text. It combines elements of role-playing games, hack and slash, interactive fiction, and online chat. Players can read descriptions of rooms, objects, other players, non-player characters, and actions performed in the virtual world. Players interact with each other and the world by typing commands that resemble a natural language.
In SE:SS, you are tasked with charting the long-abandoned Serpens Sector, a region of space reached through a wormhole near Earth. Each star system you visit brings you an encounter with something – ancient ruins, other humans and many dangers. The map and encounters are chosen at random for each game, which means that each game plays out differently.
The intention is to release the base game for free, and create expansion backs for sale. SE:SS is intended to be a game of discovery, and will contain many hidden truths to be discovered by the dedicated player.
Available for Windows, Linux and Macintosh. Java is required.
