_This project is currently in it's early prototype stage. You can see other

|
|
|
Tortuga is a 2D multiplayer role playing game set in a large archipelago
|
|
occupied by warring pirate clans. The emphasis of this game is on multiplayer
|
|
cooperation, competition, and server customization. The game runs on highly
|
|
customizable server software that can support up to 150 simultaneous players or
|
|
more. The player characters are tied to the server where they are created and
|
|
are susceptible to permadeath: deletion of a character upon death.
