I’m back home and I’ve been settled in for almost a week now. Non-stop for months, I kept thinking about what I would do when I got back, so the plan is clear. I’m going to be renting a dedicated office space and working on my company Medieval Software LLC. My first “product” won’t be much of a product at all, more of a passion project I’ve always wanted to give myself a legitimate reason to pursue.
The idea is pretty simple, I write a private backend that implements all the core features needed for RuneScape, and then I provide access to a scriptable frontend and enable a form of live scripting to make things fun and interesting. Easier said than done, I’m planning on essentially rewriting the entire game client in a different language (Go). For more information join the community! (Discord)
As of now, these are just pipe dreams in a madman’s eyes. In order to rewrite an entire game client I have to fully understand it (or rip it and smack it together). Luckily I’ve already spent plenty of time doing this and have also made my work publicly available on GitHub. I also tinkered with WebGL2 to get an idea of what to expect.
