Default Re: New Game Idea

I agree that an Online Version of StarFury would be interesting.

Possibly it could be done as a text-MUD or ansi-color one. Plenty of open source C code to build off of. Im sure it would prove as addictive as any MUD (muds never die, I know I have one on my server that Ive been waiting to die for years). If it proved itself there maybe someone would step it up to a java graphical Version. It wouldnt quite be real-time. It would be slice-time (1 round a second).
