TwilightMMORL is a multiplayer PvE roguelike played over telnet, with the potential for many players to be playing together at once. It features a large, expansive overworld in addition to randomly generated dungeons. Race/Class/Concentration combinations allow for unique fighting styles. The diverse set of monsters to fight provides a wide range of gameplay to experience.

Gameplay

TwilightMMORL is played by connecting to g1.twilightmmorl.com on port 8001 with a telnet-compatible client like PuTTY. Guides for registering your character and playing the game are provided in-game. TwilightMMORL is under continual development, but since the client acts only as a dumb terminal, development changes appear in-game with no user interaction required.

Twilight is played in real-time, with each turn lasting 0.25 seconds. Movement and attacking is with classic numpad or vi keys, whilst both equipping and using special items are done with the 'e' key (also covers spells cast from scrolls). Players can hold down keys for continuous commands, or use basic auto-attack and auto-explore features. The world map is pregenerated and unchanging between updates, but there is also a special random dungeon to enter where players can compete for high scores.

Note that when using PuTTY, local line editing must be forced off in your putty configuration (under "Terminal").
