# Esoterra

**This was the second version of Esoterra.** It was an improvement in
many ways over [the first version](https://git.aikuro.net/poems/esoterra-original).
Still, it is extremely hacky and lacks tests. Like the first version it
has bugs, including timing bug that can cause rewards from activities to
be duplicated. Still, if you're interested in how you might make a browser
RPG in Ruby on Rails, this repo might give you some ideas. I would recommend
doing things more properly than I did though! Esoterra wasn't professional,
it was a hack of love.

Esoterra is no longer online, but was a multiplayer online browser-based RPG.
I made it because I always wanted to make a browser RPG, and thought it
would be fun to do it in Rails. It provided months of fun and entertainment
for my friends and I, though it was a lot of work to develop a game! The
programming was the easy part, in many ways.
