While Jayson almost finished the Dungeon map design, I dedicated this week to tackling the challenges of moving to NodeJS/new cloud technologies - While game-wise it is not directly productive, I consider it a good investment - I suspect it's going to take around 2 weeks to actually re-write/re-structure and move everything when/if the time comes to open source Good thing about the current Python backend is that it can fully run locally too, the new Node JS one will assumably make things simpler, however, new stuff can't run locally, so it will be a game that will go live with 1 command - it's both cool and bad, bad because free tiers are very restrictive and cloud costs are high - I just hope it won't be a roadblock to those who attempt yo build their own experimental mmorpg's - and I guess it also eliminates the step each project has where you go from local development to a public version

There are no quests, no guides you have to strictly follow to the letter. No objectives either. You can do anything you want. Even farming the lowest monster will yield satisfactory results! You can trade, gamble in tavern, party with friends, pvp solo with your rouge or go after rare loots!


Adventure Land wasn't originally a Code based game, during early development, it ended up a bit like a Clicker MMORPG, simple but fun. Then came Code, to let machines do the clicking! So it's not something extremely complex no one can understand, it's just basic automation!


Mage, Warrior, Rogue, Ranger, Priest and Merchant. All with different, easy to understand, but unique skills. There are no skill trees or the need to pick attributes, it's all automatic to keep things simple. Items provide some depth, and Code adds some variation to the mix.


There's a lot to work on. Daily Events, Paladin Class, Pets, Guilds (or Familias, as they will be small), New Zones, New Items, New Skills. All features are shaped and vetted by the playerbase.
