I've been working on this sort of game for awhile now. Never too seriously, though that will change in 2023. Hardly worth sharing at this point, but I will anyway.

I need to seriously think about what I want out of this game (more of a mmo game engine), but "UO-like" is definitely top of mind.

I was excited to play but I couldn't make it past the character creation screen. There's a bug preventing me from spending all of my attribute points.

Huh, that's odd. I can't figure out how to get that problem to happen. Not even selected a preset works?

By the way, if you manage to get it to work, make an account starting with '@' to get admin privileges. You could also explore the local play–it's the same server code, but running in a web worker instead of on my server.

I got the same bug when I clicked create button without filling the "character name" field.

Great demo btw!
