Anyone here who's a wizz at python and wants to evaluate an open source game I found that is a browser based online space based strategy MMO? Seems ideal for the first HYPER incarnation, has resource management, trading, technology research, 2 different alien races, interface, set up to use as MMO out of the box, and more. It also has a huge cult fanbase in Hungary who are eagerly waiting for the game to be resurrected.
Think of an MMO Master of Orion but better graphics! Unfortunately, although it is open source and able to be used without limitations, apparently the code is not the cleanest and it can be hard to make customizations (which we will need). So I'm looking for a python wizz to evaluate the code for us.
Bounty offered!Only took me 4 hours of trawling the net to find
If worse comes to worse I can use some of the MMO dev fun to hire someone from Odesk or similar to give it a look.
EDIT: Firstly, we can just set it up out of the box and see what it's like
This thing is so good I don't want to make it public yet.
