Arianne is a multiplayer online engine to develop turn based and real time games, providing a simple way of creating the game server rules and clients like our MORPG Stendhal. Our engine Marauroa uses Java and SQL for hosting hundreds of players on a solo host. Stendhal is a fun friendly and free multiplayer online adventure game with a huge and rich world. With hundreds of NPCs and different quests, features like the Travel log and achievement system keep track of progress. Thousands of creatures are ready to fight, above and below ground, and as players level up they can compare themselves on a detailed stats website. The engine Marauroa provides a simple way of creating games on a portable and robust server architecture. Marauroa manages the client server communication and provides an object orientated view of the world for game developers. It handles database access in a transparent way to store player accounts, character progress and the state of the world

This is a scriptable mud client implemented in Python. Its only third party library is PyGTK. It is thus platform independent and provides a good looking interface in any system. Also, multiview scrolling is provided. Implemented features are triggers, macros and timers. Triggers and macros recognize patterns in the regular ways plus in an AL compatible mode. Actions can be defined by users as directly commands. Alternatively, in script mode, the action text is interpreted as Python code. The mud, match objects and defined variables are accessible from any feature. For the more advanced user, the implementation is small and extensible. Specially the gtkmud/mud API is easy to understand. It is thread-safe enabling multiple threads to input data to the target MUD. Also, multiple listeners can register to get all MUD output.
