Shadows will be a mmo with a very unique spell and crafting system. The IrrLicht graphics engine (http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net) shall be utilized to serve as a cross platform engine. I'm oping to create the feel of a graphical mud more than an mmo.
This game is a member of a new generation of games. Created with IrrlichtEngine, it is able to display cool effects, eg shadows and weather. The AI is very intellegent, too. Moreover all missions play on the same map, which is 2x2 miles large.
