Hi Guys,

I'm a relative newcomer back to the BBS scene, so forgive me if everyone
already knows about this.

Have you played the Darkness 2.0 door game?  It's awesome!

It's written by Jack Phlash & is heavily inspired by LORD.  It takes place in
a post-apocolyptic world with x number of fights per day, level ups, various
weapons & armour along with some extras that LORD didn't have like Cyberdecks
& Nanostitcher Healing.

I'm just getting started in the game, so I'm looking forward to working my
way through it.  It's nice to find a new high quality door game in 2020.

When I went to re-setup a BBS, of course I went & installed as many of
the "classic" door games I had running back in the late 90's - LORD, Planets,
BRE, etc.

I then got to wondering if anything new came out after I left the scene,
that's when I came across Darkness 2.0 on an all-RIP board.  (Darkness
doesn't appear to have RIP graphics, that's just where I discovered it).

According to the version information, it looks like 2.0 came out Jan 2020 and
has some familiar names in the credits for helping test: Xqtr & Maskreet.

It's available on DoorParty ("The official beta test host") and can also be
downloaded from:
