Lore

This is an experimental multi-user dungeon (MUD - aka a text based MMO) server written in Gleam. It's still early stages and a work in process.

The architecture takes inspiration from Kalevala written in Elixir by Eric Oestrich. Thanks Eric!

A good place to start with the codebase is the endpoint for the telnet connection at src/lore/server/telnet/protocol.gleam.
