A multiplayer rewrite of Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead in python.
1-24-19 update - This codebase is moving to a more mud-style clientless telnet system where player's will connect to the game using a telnet or MUD client.
A playable release is coming soon and will follow an episodic pattern, with each release adding more:
- Chapter 1 - Immediately after the cataclysm. This will be the minimum playable product.
- Chapter 2 - Vehicles. One of the more complex - and enjoyable - systems in C:DDA.
- Chapter 3 - Bionics and Mutations. The main sci-fi elements of the game brought to multiplayer.
- Chapter 4+ - Continued Expansion. Maps, graphics, and content on for as long as there are people willing to work on it.
Made with python 3.7.0 64 bit and Mastermind for the TCP backend.
Generic installation instructions
