Stick in the MUD Podcast

So, this week, I blather on for a while about microtransactions, MUDs, and the inherent good, evil, and selling-your-soul-ness of supporting monetizing a game/monetizing your game. Is there such a thing as ethical microtransactions? Let me know what you think, via email, comment, or discord. Come yell at me on Discord! My id is Leotharas#4172 […]

Hey everyone, it’s Tark’s first review in a while! I’ve been playing Darkwind for a few weeks now when I’ve found the time to do so, and it’s the first LPMUD that I can say that I’ve been having a blast with. The staff is great, the players are super awesome and helpful to my […]

What the title says. In my awesome “I’m prepared and ready to do this, go me!” I forgot to actually upload the audio files. I blame my children. But it’s in the last post, and it’s in this post!

This episode is mostly concerned about what to do when you don’t really have a player base for your MUD. Anything from scaling zones to mob party members that behave more like other players, something has to exist in your game that keeps people playing even when there’s no one else home. Come yell at […]

So, pretty simple episode this week. Just some talk about attracting, and possibly keeping, players. It’s really all kind of general stuff that’s probably been said a lot of times before, but I like to think I gave a fairly unique twist to it. Come yell at me on Discord!

For episode twenty, I decided to talk about that thing that’ll keep me from giving your game more than a five minute try. Help files! So often, these delicious nuggets of information are left to themselves, without updates, organization, or any of that helpy goodness that makes a good game a great game. Come yell […]

That’s right, after WAAAAAAAAY too long of a hiatus, I’m back and spitting out episodes. Feels good to record, and as I’m going to actually get back to playing MUDs again, that’s going to feel good too. Pretty lazy editing for this episode, so I apologize for any word fumbles and the like, but I’m […]

Today, I spend some time talking about the relationships between MUD administrators and players. Hopefully, both sides are angry at me! CLOK, June’s Let’s MUD Winner! Sponsor AND MUD Hosting: Opie Twitch Channel Youtube RSS Music – Sean Phillips on Spotify MUD Subreddit MUD Discord

It’s what the title says. I apologize for what I’m sure is a bit of kid noise and doggo barking in the background. Didn’t really take the time to get that all edited out. But, a cast! Edits will come in as I listen to it again and remember to add those links I mentioned! […]

So, it’s what the title says. Lazy editing on my part this week, but I just wanted to get this up and out there. Sorry if I make you yawn

Hey everyone! So, it’s what the title says, and what I say in the podcast. I figure this is going to either be the best, most well received episode ever, OOOORRRRRR I’ll lose all my current listeners because of it. One or the other, no middle ground. With that all being said, hit play! Tarknote: […]
