Some nesperion History

Long, long ago, on this very website was a free to play text based multi-player rpg/strategy game.

Some of my faithful followers might remember Nesperion's Realm.

For those who don't, Nesperion's Realm was my very first attempt at programming anything when php was still fairly new and 3d games on the net did not yet exist.

Basically it was a hobby project. Sure it had a few bugs and wasn't the prettiest thing you could lay your eyes on, but it was a functioning online game with scrolling chat, all scripted in php.

Players had a character who would roam the country side slaying monsters, collecting items to equip and gold coins to line thier pockets with.

NPC's would pledge alliegance to aspiring characters who would gather armies to capture land, build towns with banks, inns, barracks and temples etc.... in which they could train and rest armies to defend thier land and lay siege on neighbouring towns.

Well I had a lot of plans for that game, but work in the real world bogged me down, php got upgraded several times, rendering all of my code useless.

I didn't have the time or energy to convert all my code to the newer versions of php and so I had no choice but to take my no-longer functional game offline.

I still have all my code for it somewhere, but it was very messy code so instead of trying to convert it, I decided to start again from scratch.

I'd worked a little on the sequal, Nesperion Conquest, but mainly it stayed on the backburner, my work in the real world kept me from being able to do anything with it.

Now, years later, I'm in a position where the real world can't keep me from my dreams any more. The dirty old bums with thier rusty daggers, and the nesperion messengers have evolved from the dark ages, polluted thier planet beyond repair and are now exploring the vast reaches of space...
