If you have a lot of trouble figuring out how to create your character in an MMORPG, maybe what you really need is to free yourself from constraints and several leaps of logic later just make yourself into a floating cursor. No, really. Cursor Party is an open-source MMO project by a developer named jidohyun in which you – and everyone else – play a cursor. Clicking on a thing. With your cursors. It’s a pretty simple interface, but in the end, isn’t that really what every MMO is about?
Well, maybe not, but it’s still an impressive project that the creator made mostly to experiment with distributed processing capabilities for simultaneous live input. The open test for the game has concluded (it was, functionally, a clicker game with multiplayer), but if you still want to download and run the game, you can! It’s not going to dazzle you with concepts, but it’s a cursor MMO, so that’s worth a bit of novelty.
