My fellow Rubyists and I are proud to announce a new version of MUES - the
Multi-User Environment Server. This version is a vast improvement on the
previous release, but we still consider it to be of alpha quality.

MUES is a multi-threaded, event-driven internet game environment server
written in Ruby and C. It is intended to facilitate the building of online
multiplayer games or simulations by providing one or more
dynamically-programmed object environments (worlds), the means to access
these environments using a network client, various useful services or daemons
for creating in-game systems, and an event system for facilitating the
interaction of all the parts.

You can find more information about it at the project page:

http://mues.FaerieMUD.org/

Questions, suggestions, and contributions welcome.

This is very cool. The architecture looks well thought out. You may
want to think about using Jabber as an eventing architecture (MUD to
client).

I wrapped jabber in Ruby:

And I’ve used it in my current (work) project and it works quite well as
a service-service messaging architecture.

Anyway, great work…I want to look deeper into the API now :wink:
