Echelon Source

Echelon Source is a new and easy to use 2D ORPG (Online RolePlaying Game) Creation System programmed in Visual Basic 6.0 made by Aftershock Development Studios. It allows you to make a full scale 2D ORPG in a matter of minutes without any knowledge of programming. The engine is Open Source, meaning if there is something lacking in the engine that you might want, with some knowledge in VB6, you can add your own features and customize your game the way you want it to be. The engine is programmed with DirectX 8 allowing you to make creative maps and bring your game to life. The engine is always being worked on, so updates come regularly. We try to have a fast, stable engine before we add features so the engine runs stable for you to make a game without crashes.

Client is about 90% done so far.

This sounds familiar...almost like I'm in the forums of something exactly like it... :lol:

Good luck with it though, hope it works out for you

Thats because no one has made us a GUI yet the one on the website isn't being used and there is no feature list yet because we are doing a basic client/server first and then we will update the feature listing as we add stuff.

Before you actually make a website I think you should make the thing first. I always believe its better starting off low profile, then raising yourself up when the time is right.
