Try this out - Matrix Unplugged (Do you dare to jack in?)

Its 4 a.m. in the morning. It's dark and gloomy. Something is seen walking down the alley and it starts to pour. One can only wonder what's going on all this odd hour.

"what's the matter with you, Neo?" He asked himself and wondering whether he made the right choice meeting up this bald person who promises to show him the real world.

"Real world, huh?" Neo speaks to himself while feeling the downpour getting heavy on his trench coat. Apparently Neo had a phone call from a person who chooses to be known as Morpheus.

Neo walks down the alley and waits. In his mind, a lot of things kept popping up. What if this is a prank call? What if this is a sheer nonsensical attempt of colleague that knows Neo is a loser and what's with the name Morpheus?

"You are the chosen One" kept playing on and on in Neo's mind. One way to find out.

Neo walks to the nearby phone booth and waits for the call.

Ring... ring... Neo was startled. "Should I pick up? damn make up your mind, Neo!"

He picks up the phone and hears a faint voice on the other side. "Hello?"

"You've been living in a dream world, Neo. "

"What you're talking about? YOU are living in a dream world" Neo was about to hang up when then he hears a voice that would change everything.

"Please Neo, you have to trust us".

It was voice of an angel and that moment he's hooked. "Okay, show me what this all about"

"I know why you're here, Neo. I know what you've been doing... why you hardly sleep, why you live alone, and why night after night, you sit by your computer. You're looking for him. I know because I was once looking for the same thing. And when he found me, he told me I wasn't really looking for him. I was looking for an answer. It's the question that drives us, Neo. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did. "

"who are you? What you're talking about?"

"I'm Trinity and welcome to the Matrix Unplugged"

You watch tentatively as cascading green code slowly fills up your monitor. Then, there is darkness, broken only by four white words in the centre of your screen:

Welcome to the Matrix

It is then that you realise: reality is not what it seems.

Looks pretty cool to me, like a Matrixy 'Legend of the Green Dragon' type game.

Yeah, I think you guys should market it as a Matrix MUD, not a Matrix MMORPG.

bitbomb and I were talking about this before. MMORPG's are graphical, MUD's are textual. Kind of reminds me of the old BBS days.

it's still in development stage and right there's a lot mmorpg text based out there.. give it a try and give feedbacks to the admin. We really need constructive feedback and ideas and suggestions.

Who else better to give than matrix fans out here!

XD

I'll give it a try! Thanks for the link.

**QuiDormit** · 11-03-2012, 05:11 PM,

Yeah, I know a lot of text based games call themselves MMORPG's, but I am just saying that it's misleading. MMO's always make me think graphical. MUD's make me think text.

For a hobby like project it is kind of neat. Will give it a shot. Where do you want feedback, I am guessing not on this forum?

HD_Neo · 12-03-2012, 09:38 PM,

I gave it a shot and no its extrem bad.

1. Design
Horrible - CSS is not in an external file. Old Web 1.0 Effekts.
And as this is not enough - worse Table Layout.

2. Playing
Boring - just stupid click and wait.

3. Graphics
Really....dude...where is the graphic ?

Overall : Every noob can do a game such as that. It looks like a Browsergame which is 10 years old.

Dont misunderstand me - but everyone can do something like that.
It seems more that you was lazy to do some pretty design (hell - why dont you use CSS ?^^).
