Come play MUSH it needs more players.

So a few people have responded to the big craze around that Among Us game by remembering that MUSH exists, which covers a lot of the same ground, while being free, more complicated, and slower paced.

It's still up and running, at least until Flash officially stops being a thing.... what, at the end of the year?

Also, as things stand, the fancy "gold mode" thing where people can get extra skills and spice things up currently costs... literally nothing to turn on for a year. You just go into the shop, go to buy 6 months of gold mode, and get charged a whole €0. So that's rad.

Unfortunately, some 8 years on or so, the playerbase has dropped off significantly. Which is an issue, because the game doesn't really start until all 16 players have joined into an instance. And that's taking like... 3 or 4 days to happen on average it seems. I'm not sure how many instances the game keeps running at a time now, but it's more than there are active players to really sustain it properly. So... new blood would kinda help the game not die. Plus it's neat for a weird flash paranoia game where you basically get such a slow drip feed of actions you only really do stuff like once or twice a day.

So... go play it? Fill these ships up?

I did! I decided to be the captain, a role I ill knew how to fill, and I asphyxiated a few days in. But for a few days, I helped!

I enjoy Among Us, and I enjoy Mush, but I wish there were a version of these games with no traitor. How would Among Us work without one? I don't know, but I'm content to run around doing mindless tasks. I don't like the stress of playing for the other team.

I thought this thread was gonna be about the kind of MUSH that's a descendant of MUD and MUX, and was gonna be even more nostalgic.

 

[Mogri]

So, yeah, the capitalization is "Mush." A MUSH is something else altogether.

This is just space team, space alert, space cadets et cetera, right?

 

[Mogri]

Well, yeah, but those aren't as chill as "no-impostor Among Us."

I’ve been craving that kind of experience too much for RP. I got some ideas down but 1. Suck at putting them down and 2. Even if I don’t host it I’d at least like to try setting up TinyMUSH as a learning experience.

But yeah, was also my first thought.
