LugdunonWiki:About
Lugdunon is a 2d multiplayer RPG / sandbox game that is reminiscent of the 16 bit console era. Lugdunon runs within your web browser, so there is no need to download a client. Lugdunon can also be played ‘on the go’ on mobile devices such as iPads and Android tablets. Players can engage in combat with each other or with NPCs, craft and trade items, empower their character with the advancement system, place and decorate in-game signs using the full-featured sign editor, and more!
However, what is really interesting about Lugdunon is the ability to take the game and truly make it your own. With powerful in-game editors available to players who have been designated ‘Game Masters’ and the ability to run your own server, the sky is the limit! Currently, from within the game itself, Game Masters can create new crafting recipes, add and edit NPCs, paint the landscape using up to 16 terrain layers, raise and lower elevation to create cliffs and chasms, place items, and edit NPC spawn points.
Many more features are planned, and new ones are being added every week. Check the Feature Roadmap section to keep up to date on what has been completed and what is still to come. Lugdunon is currently in beta (as of March 1, 2014), with the final release coming hopefully at the end of 2014.
The server is freely available as a jar file for individuals to run their own instances. Documentation on running your own server, as well as a download link to the latest version can be found in the Running your own server section.
