• New Game 'OfficeSpace'

    So some of you might know that I have been working on a BBS game called OfficeSpace from the MRC discussions.

    I've gotten to a point that I need some feedback if people are willing to give it a shot.

    It is an ANSI game, it currently being hosted, and can be added to any system by an outgoing telnet connection to bbs.archaicbinary.net port 2225.

    The nature of the game does require centralized hosting as it operates as a sort of "MMO". Users can connect to the system and login, accessing their characters directly.

    The game uses a moving mapping system similar to Arrow Bridge or LORD2. Enemies are randomly generated, as are events. There are quests, npcs, objects, items, "spells", terminal access, and other things to interact with. There is no 'daily limit' on moves like other BBS games used to limit daily actions.

    The game can also be found on Archaic Binary (bbs.archaicbinary.net 23)

    Thanks!

    It sounds interesting. From the name, it sounded like something that might be based on the movie Office Space (1999), but from the description, it sounds like it's not?
