Eterspire indie MMO

A nice 3D MMO is being developed and the creator is putting their test-phase releases here on itch.

I feel like this cool project deserves more attention. It is a big fat blob of potential. There is currently very little to do in it, you can only run around and kill monsters and sell loot to an NPC, and there is no player interaction features except a chatbox, but it seems to be otherwise off to a decent start and I think the creator, Lartu, can take it a long way if they get more support and feedback. It'd be great to see more players jump in and help give their system some proper testing. There are already a couple regulars, but it mostly stays a ghost town and imo it deserves better.

Account creation is all handled by an in-game form, no need to a website for it. One thing I will caution you on is that connecting to the server when you log in takes a while. You're going to think it isn't working but it only takes a minute. So wait a bit before you give up and close it. Nevermind, that problem seems to be specific to me. You will probably connect just fine.

Thanks for the support!

Hiiiiiiiii! Thank you for the support, first! Second, would it be possible for me to contact you via another platform, if it's okay with you, to do some checks to try and understand why the login is taking you so long? It's not the first time we've heard about this bug, but we haven't been able to replicate it yet! If that's alright, please hit me at [redacted] with your contact info! Thank you so so much again! 🥰

After thinking about it, the problem could be on my end. I keep my security software puffed up to maximum paranoia mode, and that is probably slowing down the handshake between my computer and your server. I played another MMO yesterday and that one seemed to take an extra long moment to connect, also. If nobody else is encountering the same wait time as I do, I'd suggest don't worry about it. It all seems fine once the connection happens.

And also, you are welcome. The best way you could thank me is by making something awesome out of your game. The MMO genre has turned to garbage over the last 10 or so years. The mainstream industry has fallen into a total disconnect with what makes an online game really enjoyable for the player. It's only indie developers like you who have the potential to make the change the world needs and reverse the decline of our standard of excellence. No pressure! Just go save the world, that's all.

Ahhh! Wonderful then, thank you so much!

We'll try to make the best game we can. We are super in love with the project and the feedback it's been gathering so far! Thank you thank you!
