    Ideally yes. Or you could implement with ExVenture.

    Do you use it for server side game logic too?

    It's not as ambitious as an MMO, but I like to use MUDs to learn new languages. I've been (slowly) working on one to learn Elixir and I'm actually finding the concurrency model somewhat difficult to use for the MUD - especially the single world that every player connects to.

    I ended up writing my own kind of software transactional memory library to help me out: https://github.com/stevbov/stm_agent

    But relying on a library like this feels fairly un-Elixir-like. It seems like the language would shine more in a problem space where there's not so much potential for arbitrary processes to depend upon eachother.
