basic flow
1) customer creates a character on website.
2) customer selects adventure to play.
3) customer uses cell phone to send input to game engine.
4) game engine interprets input and performs game logic
5) game engine sends results back to customer’s cell phone.
i want to avoid a SMS gateway for the sending results back to customer’s cell phone. So maybe we should use the cell phones email address ?
SEPARATE WORK FLOW
6) from the website a person can create their own ADVENTURE
and save it for others to play. The adventure will adhere to game rules/logic that any one can select and play.
some one with expert BOT experience. maybe alice or rayo ?
i want this to play like a TEXT ADVETURE like ZORK or even A MUD
but also capable of sending images or sounds as well.
