Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • DikuMUD3

    DikuMUD III using HTML and websockets.

  • Try DikuMUD if you want C. It's a classic, so will have the classic feel to it, but DikuMUD 3 is relatively new and includes a webclient, looks like the developer also has a discord so you can probably ask questions. https://github.com/Seifert69/DikuMUD3

  • evennia

    Python MUD/MUX/MUSH/MU* development system

  • https://www.evennia.com/ also great but will require more development before you can play

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • rom24

    A Python conversion of the Rom Dikurivative codebase, by Davion.

  • https://github.com/bubthegreat/rom24 is a fork of the old rom codebase in python I’ve been poking at to get it running smoothly - it was partially completed but had a bunch of bugs - at this point it’s mostly running but way way easier to troubleshoot
