Browser-based PHP hacker-themed game — ORPG — open source — 2022 update & plan
Major upgrade, many of the bugs fixed, much more documentation is available, and automated testing. Try it out, report any issues and contribute to making a better game!
Secret Republic is a PHP & MySQL browser-based online role-playing game, without much graphics, fairly old-school in nature, see here for screenshots.
2021
After the open-source original release back in 2018, no major developments have been done in 2021 other than creating a live-preview and handheld set-up screens for V3 and V4 (I continue to recommend you give a try to both, V3 has however a lot more features, but older code). Read this article for the 2021 update.
2022
Comes with great news for those who may have an interest in this project. I have focused on fixing many of the bugs that have been reported by a couple of people who have tried the project, some of which were self-identified. Additionally, documentation is improving steadily, with a lot more available now than originally, particularly for v3.
Automated tests are now present and runnable, with very low coverage, however, which will hopefully also increase in time depending on whether the project is in use as well! But the basics are now there.
For this year, the plan is to continue supporting those who would like to give it a try and encounter problems. Any ideas, bugs, contributions, and discussions are welcome and will be reviewed and responded to within a week!
