The Mana World (TMW) is a serious effort to create an innovative free and open source MMORPG. It uses 2D graphics and aims to create a large and diverse interactive world. The game aims to be a unique place for people to interact not only by fighting each other but to play life, form a community within the community, or just simply chat. Although the game is never-ending and a linear story cannot be applied, it should have enough background to describe and predefine tribes, kingdoms, and the environment overall. Fullfilled quests should lead to certain events depending on them being solved. Quests should also encourage teamwork. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
This version comes with many requested features like the ability to define your own key settings, better handling of connection loss, trimming of chat messages, resizable buy/sell dialogs, and a lot of bugfixes. Other notable additions are support for female-specific hair styles and XP-gaining notification. On the technical side of things, this version brings support for dynamic sprite recoloring (currently only used for the different hair colors), and loaded resources are now no longer instantly thrown away when no longer used, which should reduce hiccups due to resource loading.
