Horribly complex, doesn’t really work with a normal audio setup. Might be worth checking out later.

Yet another MMO, but this one is set in the Star Wars universe. Because light sabres, yo.
Conclusion: Amateur night.
This would have been great in the late nineties. Right now, the voiceovers are fantastic but the quest interactive cutscenes are ugly. The choices are sometimes vague and unforgiving. There is spectacular effort with all the rendered videos, but that just took away from resources for the game itself.

It can’t copy magnet links, so it’s best to not use it.

I had originally fallen in love with Ruby with the hopes of being able to use it on 16-bit DOS computers, but didn’t turn out to be possible. Since then I had stuck with it to tinker around quite a lot. But it turns out that a vast amount more programs are written in Python. Since my experiences with Ruby GUI toolkits were just horrifying, and all the Python GUI stuff I’ve seen is awesome, I think I’ll check things out.
I didn’t end up looking into Python much, but I have a bunch of notes.
