About
Encreecia is a multiplayer adventure game. The goal is to create a small world for players to explore together, using simple but enjoyable game mechanics.
The current version has been in development since January 2007, but the ideas behind it are much older. See history for more details.
You may notice that there are a lot of references to JFealdia, which is the development name of the project. It will be used until there is enough content to label this as something more than a tech demo.
Status
Overview: basic features are present, but there is no content in the game.
Features:
- Monster spawns, several different monsters
- Loot from monsters: weapons, armor, etc
- NPCs: guards & wandering town folks
- Player vs. player combat with town guards attacking offenders
- Parties: players can join a temporary group to share experience by killing monsters together. Other members are shown on minimap etc.
- Guilds: players can join a permanent group
- Player apartments that are player-specific instances where items can be dropped for permanent storage
What is missing (from the top of my head):
- Real content
- Good graphics
- Polished UI
- Good utilities for creating maps
Requirements
- Java 6 or compatible
- Ant 1.7 or compatible (for building from sources)
- Eclipse (optional, for development)
