Heyooo all,
Skull Crash is a multiplayer text-mode RPG built for BBS terminals:
CP437, ANSI art, and turn-based tactical combat where position matters.
There is a persistent shared world with quests, crafting, trade and
small instanced dungeons. Four classes are playable today: Reaver,
Ranger, Sorcerer and Assassin. Its home is on Xibalba, bu tyou can also
hook up via "SCLink":
How SCLink works
----------------
If you have run a BBSLink door, it will feel familiar. Your board makes
one HTTPS exchange with the game: it asks for a challenge, signs it with
your board's secret, and gets back a ticket. The ticket is good for one
caller, once, for 30 seconds. The board then hands the caller over over
RLOGIN, the caller lands at character select, and that is the whole
login.
* No second username or password. Callers play as themselves. A
character is tied to the caller's user number on your board and is
still there on the next visit.
* Your secret never crosses the wire, and your board's clock does not
have to be right.
* Your callers show up in game as Name@TAG, with your board's tag.
* TLS is used wherever your software can do it. Where the play leg
cannot (Synchronet's and Mystic's RLOGIN gates), the HTTPS exchange is
still encrypted and the plain leg carries no password.
Supported today
---------------
ENiGMA 1/2 native module, full TLS
Synchronet sclink.js plus SBBS's own RLOGIN gate
Mystic sclink.mpy plus Mystic's IR command
WWIV, others any STDIO door: sclink.py (Python 2.7.9+/3, Windows
too) or sclink.sh (bash/curl/OpenSSL)
In general, this is based off BBSLink, so it should be accessible
wherever you could have hooked up to that.
Getting hooked up
-----------------
Send me a netmail or an email
nuskooler@xibalba.vip with:
1. Your board name and the tag you would like (2-6 of A-Z/0-9)
2. Your BBS package and version
You will get back your tag, a secret, the host and ports, and the
setup guide for your package. Setup is a copy-a-file,
add-a-menu-entry job on every package listed above.
Fair warning: Skull Crash is in active development. Content and balance
change often, but there is a LOT to explore now.
See you in the game hopefully! :D
