Gemini is a Strategy-Focused 2D Web-Based Massively Multiplayer Online Game currently in development.
The main features of Gemini are:
- Skill-based character development, with helper “Class” titles
- Low combat emphasis, instead being more about Information Warfare and proper counter-strategy
- Solo and group play
- Player-generated factions, political systems, voting
- More advanced chat and message systems than in traditional IRC/MUD-based MMOs
- Player crafting, merchanting
- Player-generated content with voting and approval system
- Multiple (and custom) ranking and point systems (team points, roleplay points, trade points) using a “Props” style system
The setting is an alternate Renaissance-era world where high amounts of skill manifests itself as magic. Painters paint colors onto the world, sculptors make things that come to life, swordfighters can cut through steel and mesmerize opponents with their form. Emphasis is placed on 1500-1600s sociopolitical problems and how they might have been theoritcally influenced by the power of magic.
