Hi everyone! I wanted to take a minute and introduce myself. I've been reading the boards for a long time, but finally registered so I can take a more active part in the discussions!

Thanks to everyone at LDW for these fantastic games! I've purchased Fish Tycoon, VV1 and VV2, and I'm *eagerly* awaiting the release of Plant Tycoon for Windows!

I'm Rhosyn, 35 year old stay-at-home-mom and a computer gamer / coder for text based rpgs. The LDW games are certainly a welcome break from the text world!

Thanks again,
Rhos

Welcome aboard!!!

Where abouts in Texas are you? (Houston here)

What kind of RPGs? Text-based rpg's are not in very wide-production these day, or...?

MUDs / MMORPGs, based on the Diku Mud software. They aren't hugely popular, but there is a very loyal playerbase. One of our games averages 200 players online at all times and we have 400 people registered for the new one thats opening next week. Its definitely a "niche market".

The ones that I've worked on are all free online multiplayer platforms, a genre unto itself, lol. They are all loosely based on a system of character development like Dungeons and Dragons.
