Objective

This is a simple game intended to be used as a tutorial on building a client-server RPG-style game with Pygame, and will be more generally usable as a programming, game development, and Activity development tutorial as we work on it further. The target audience is new developers 12 and up.

Code

Roberto has licensed all his code under the LGPL. We're in the process of getting Project hosting but for now download the code here:

How to run it

It's a very simple game - you'll mostly be able to walk around the forest.

  1. download the code
  2. unzip the package (tar -xzf simple_mmorpg.tar.gz)
  3. run the server code (python server.py)

On a machine

Todo

  • translate documentation from Portuguese to English (Mchua, should be done Wed. May 7, 2008)
  • redraw creatures

Resources

All images are under a free license, just can't find the license of scenes (copylefted): http://www.lostgarden.com/2006/07/more-free-game-graphics.html

creatures are from there: http://www.lorestrome.com/pixel_archive/main.htm (this license allows free use just for non-commercial only, so we should make new creature images)
