Genera

This is the Genera wiki. It documents an free open-source networked game engine. It explores the territory of games like Second Life, RPG Maker, and Elysium Source. Anyone can run a server, or a tracker that clusters multiple servers into a world. It is written in C and C++, and utilizes the Allegro library for everything except networking. Networking is handled by custom socket wrapper classes. All of this is 100% freely hackable and useful code.

It will be: ---Small ---Easy ---Tilemapped

Editing the map is done in realtime through the client.

The game has a chatbox/command-line, and a very simple, uncluttered GUI featuring a tile-pallete and layer controls, all of which can be rendered with transparency if desired.

More to come, I am just trying to start this page...
