SpacetimeMUD

Welcome to SpacetimeMUD, a game project developed in using, Rust (server), Typescript (frontend), and Python (ai-agent) that uses SpacetimeDB to create a text based adventure game commonly known as a "Multi-user dungeon". One twist is that players create the dungeon by giving commands to an AI Agent that connects like a player but uses OpenAI to generate the content from user prompts. While this project is still under development, all the code and assets are open-source and free for anyone to use in their own projects.

Features

• Login: The user's private key is stored locally in their home directory the first time they play and is used to authenticate in future sessions.
• Rooms and Navigation: Players can see the room description of the current room and use exit connections to travel form room to room.
• Chat: Players can speak to each other and NPCs using say and tell commands.
• NPCs: NPCs can have conversations with players and are driven by prompts sent to OpenAI API.
• Room and NPC Creation: Players can send messages to the AI Agent asking it to create new rooms and spawn conversational NPCs
