Heyooo all,

Skull Crash is a multiplayer text-mode RPG built for BBS terminals:
CP437, ANSI art, and turn-based tactical combat where position matters.
There is a persistent shared world with quests, crafting, trade and
small instanced dungeons. Four classes are playable today: Reaver,
Ranger, Sorcerer and Assassin. Its home is on Xibalba, bu tyou can also
hook up via "SCLink":

How SCLink works
----------------
If you have run a BBSLink door, it will feel familiar. Your board makes
one HTTPS exchange with the game: it asks for a challenge, signs it with
your board's secret, and gets back a ticket. The ticket is good for one
caller, once, for 30 seconds. The board then hands the caller over over
RLOGIN, the caller lands at character select, and that is the whole
login.

* No second username or password. Callers play as themselves. A
  character is tied to the caller's user number on your board and is
  still there on the next visit.
* Your secret never crosses the wire, and your board's clock does not
  have to be right.
* Your callers show up in game as Name@TAG, with your board's tag.
* TLS is used wherever your software can do it. Where the play leg
  cannot (Synchronet's and Mystic's RLOGIN gates), the HTTPS exchange is
  still encrypted and the plain leg carries no password.

Supported today
---------------
  ENiGMA 1/2      native module, full TLS
  Synchronet      sclink.js plus SBBS's own RLOGIN gate
  Mystic          sclink.mpy plus Mystic's IR command
  WWIV, others    any STDIO door: sclink.py (Python 2.7.9+/3, Windows
                  too) or sclink.sh (bash/curl/OpenSSL)

In general, this is based off BBSLink, so it should be accessible
wherever you could have hooked up to that.

Getting hooked up
-----------------
Send me a netmail or an email nuskooler@xibalba.vip with:

  1. Your board name and the tag you would like (2-6 of A-Z/0-9)
  2. Your BBS package and version

You will get back your tag, a secret, the host and ports, and the
setup guide for your package. Setup is a copy-a-file,
add-a-menu-entry job on every package listed above.

Fair warning: Skull Crash is in active development. Content and balance
change often, but there is a LOT to explore now.

See you in the game hopefully! :D
