Sphere RPG Engine project is a role-playing game creation engine.

Sphere is a RPGCE (a role-playing game (RPG) creation engine) that allows you to relatively easily put together an RPG along the lines of Final Fantasy 6 or Phantasy Star.

It supports 32-bit graphics (with 256 levels of translucency) and MP3, Ogg, MOD, S3M, IT, and XM files for audio (and WAV and SPX (speex) for sound effects), and does not place arbitrary limits on map, tile set, sprite set, or script sizes.

It also supports the three standard modes of input for games: keyboard, mouse, and joystick.

Sphere uses SpiderMonkey (Mozillas JavaScript implementation) for scripting. JavaScript is a very powerful, easy, and flexible language.

The core Sphere engine, after being installed, can run several games. This means that the games dont have to be distributed with the engine, saving download time and disk space. Also, the games can be run on other operating systems, such as Linux, if the engine runs there. On the other hand, you can include the Sphere engine with your game so that Windows users can run your game out of the box.

The Sphere engine is based around maps. Maps use tilesets, which are collections of tiles. A map of a beach would have tiles that represent the sand, the water, clouds, signs, and anything else on the beach. Sphere has support for animated tiles.

Torches could flicker in a cave, or waves could lap at the shore. Maps support unlimited layers, each with parallax and automatic scrolling.

Objects in Sphere are represented as entities. Townspeople are defined with spritesets, which are collections of frames. People can walk in eight directions, and have special directions (usually used for emotions or running). Unlike most RPG engines, spritesets in Sphere have a variable size. Large animal spritesets are used just as easily as people.

Sloth Online RPG is aJava Online RPG with Real-Time Action and rich 2D graphics.

Sloth Online RPG is a work in progress that will provide a fully graphical online role playing game engine. SlothORPG is coded in Java and is currently in a near playable state featuring several classes with over a thousand lines of code.

My main intentions with this project are to provide a free, fully functional, ever expanding Role Playing Engine (both client and server side) for the end user who would be playing the game. Developers would also be able to use the project as a resource on certain aspects of Java Game Programming.

Server side the project implements the NIO Networking library to create a smoother, stronger tcp/ip core. I found UDP and TCP w/ the old IO library to be unreliable and sluggish respectively. The way in which the server is structured has proven to be strong thus far.

The client side of the code features the Graphics2D Java library to provide near perfect animation without requiring a rendering device such as OpenGL or DirectX.

To summarize my entire intent for this project I basically wanted to provide an Online RPG that is functional on almost any OS that has Java installed and can run just as smooth on low end machines while still being able to feature rich 2-D graphics. The source code is clean and neat as well as commented and organized.

It is easy to read and understand for someone who has some knowledge of Java. As I write this, the project is coming along nicely and some pre-alpha local network testing has proven this. I plan to continue with this project and in the future include database integration and more of a developer-side interface.

A quick rundown of what this project includes so far: Character Creation, Smooth character animation, and fully supported tcp/ip gameplay. Chatting is also implemented.

StressFreeZone RPG project is a massive multiplatform RPG system.

StressFreeZone RPG is a multiplatform RPG system which runs on Linux and Windows (other systems are possible). The client is based on the SDL libraries and uses OpenGL.

The structure is server/client oriented, but the server will probably only run under Linux.

phpRPG project is a Web-based multiplayer fantasy RPG.
phpRPG is a multiplayer fantasy role-playing game driven by PHP and MySQL, with aims to develop a Web-based game engine which shares common qualities between multiple user dungeons (MUDs), paper & pen RPGs, and computer RPGs.
Enhancements:
- With this release, the code was reviewed and tidied up to comply with the coding standards, the need for cookies was eliminated
- all of the images were changed to .png or .jpg format
- the dynamic hexagonal grid image is now replaced by image tiles
- JavaScript was incorporated to provide better player control
- an event processor was implemented
- the map editor was advanced and database structures reorganised
- the chat system was improved (but emotions are disabled for the moment)
- there are new items-related functions such as take, drop, identify, and equip
- there is now a rough but functional and playable combat system.

PHP Online RPG project is an graphical online RPG.
This RPG uses only the browser to create a vast world. The power of html tables allow us to create a graphical online rpg that is fast, and vivid. The only requirements are a browser and patience.
As the world grows, its possible for the code to move slower and we ask your patience. This game truly is an inspiration to those who want to play games at work on a simple web browser.
The RPG featured has certain placement graphics from Delta Taos ClanLord. These are not meant for distribution, but for examples. You can change the style to a Diablo-type RPG, or an anime rpg, or something completely different such as a space RPG.
The project, including the layout, is open ended. The first couple of releases are to get public interest. The code is not the best. When we have a stable release we will mark the download. The only admin at this time is Adam.Atomical.
Enhancements:
- Object oriented interface
- Specialized function interface ( for PHP coders )
- Multi-player combat
- Single player combat
- Treasure
- Finding Inventory
- Spawning of Items

The Merchant is a turn based RPG in which you explore the universe and trade to earn credits and experience.

The Merchant is implemented as a Web application.

The Merchant is still in the alpha stages, so the game is not complete but you may create an account and login.

Please play the game and help in the search for bugs.

Shadows Rising project is a Web-based Role Playing Game open to customisation.
Shadows Rising is an RPG game engine. The engine is aimed at enabling users to install a number of game modules which will use the engine to present an RP game to players on the users site.
The basic concept of the game engine is to create a highly configurable and extendable engine to support Role Playing games under a variety of ruleset regimes. The game engine therefore keeps all game content and data stored externally to the engine in what are known as "Game Modules". These Game Modules are basically XHTML and CSS template files, database stored data, content and game items. As a result individual users may create custom Game Modules tailored for specific game types, locations, plots, NPCs and timelines.
This immense ability makes possible a large variety of RPG games, something deeply supported by the ability to configure almost any game engine settings, and add game engine "Plug-Ins" which extend both functionality and support for more complex Game Modules. The game engine is pre-packaged with the "Shadows Rising RPG Game" created by the game engine developers. A primary development objective is making both game engine configuration and Game Module creation as easy a process as possible - including the ability to use alternative RPG rulesets that users may be more comfortable and familiar with.
Shadows Rising is written in the PHP language, with data stored and retrieved using either the MySQL or PostgreSQL Database Management Systems which use SQL (Simplified Query Language). Output conforms to the XHTML 1.0 Strict, XHTML 1.1 and CSS standards. Javascript is used on a limited basis.
Enhancements:
- minor update to 0.0.5 to correct a number of small issues and update any corrupted files hosted by Sourceforge at the last release.
