Status : Offline		CircumReality is a multiplayer game that I’ve been writing. It’s a cross between interactive fiction (lots of narration and talking), an adventure game (inspiration from Myst), a CRPG (NPCs from Oblivion/Fallout), and an MMORPG (multiplayer). Gameplay is NOT about killing monsters (though they exist), but about “social puzzles”. You advance in the game befriending non-player characters (NPCs). Being unique individuals, every NPC is befriended differently (puzzles).

It isn’t a pure adventure game, but I thought some people here might still be interested.

I would appreciate feedback. After working on the game so long, I have become myopic to its many faults. By the way, “It sucks...” feedback is fine (and expected :-) ), but please make the feedback actionable: “It sucks because of A, B, and C.” Please post feedback on this forum or E-mail me.

You can download the software from http://www.CircumReality.com. The web site contains more images and some YouTube videos.

PS - You can use CircumReality to create your own worlds. More information on creating your own world is available from my web site.

Deleted UserPlease tell us first: - you say that it is multiplayer - is there a SP mode at all?  From what you've said in your post, it looks as if it is purely online play?

CircumReality is two things: An engine so you can write your own worlds, and my own world that I have created using the engine.

My world (called "A traveller's guide to the Ashtari Empire: Amroth"
is multiplayer.

However, CircumReality can be used to create single-player titles. I haven't tested the functionality for awhile though - which means I could have accidentally broken it, but any problems that arise should be easy enough to fix.

The way the single-player mode works is that (a) the server application runs in the background on your computer when you're playing single-player, and (b) the game world is saved on a per-player basis.
