The idea

An MMORPG you leave running in a background terminal while you work. Skills train, loot drops and quests complete whether you are watching or not.

What I built

A full terminal game with a command palette, an action queue and offline progression. Game content lives in TOML files, so items, skills and quests change without touching code.

Stack

Rust, ratatui for rendering and tokio for the game loop.
