Project: Disrupted Website: https://disrupted.city/ Discord: https://discord.gg/xFXjPWhW35 Hey everyone, I wanted to share a project I’ve been working for quite some time now. I’m building a new browser-based text game called Disrupted, which is heavily inspired by an old game some of you might remember Zapoco. Zapoco was a unique post-apocalyptic PBBG that sadly shut down, but it left a lasting impression on a lot of players, including me. My aim isn’t to just make a clone, but to revive the spirit while giving it the polish and support it deserves. Eventually, I’ll make the project open-source so the community can help shape its future. (... what tom didn't do) I’m trying to capture the same gritty atmosphere Zapoco had, while expanding on it with more depth (features). That said, I’m still missing a lot: features, settings, and even some of the old scripts are gone. For example, I don’t remember exactly how the safehouse kitchen worked. How could it be upgraded? What were the production ratios? Was it something like 1 tonne of grain = 1 bread? These are details I’d really love to recover from people who played back then. If no one remembers, I’ll have to come up with my own solutions. So if you remember Zapoco — its features, ratios, or mechanics — please share your knowledge. It would be a huge help in making (or trying) Disrupted feel like the successor to a game many of us loved. Or just want to help build a game, your all welcome 🙂 Greetings

My offer is still open, and ive posted a reddit:

It works! now i can play 🙂 However, i broke the game now. If you are running (example ARROW LEFT ), and you switch tab (firefox) the game thinks you are still pressing that button (ARROW LEFT), so you cannot use the other 3 and the game becomes unplayable 🙂 And there is nothing to do, no enemies ... Greetz! 😉

i cannot play it since its WASD, i do that those keys but not in that order, i have to play with ZQSD Looks nice tho!

Yeah, that too 😉 i always forget there is a difference

Vue is no option for me, since i suck at java

i dont want to create a game that look allot like another game and have the same features, there is no point for me to continue then, however if you look at all those mafia games. But thats not the point, i just dont want to do this all on my own with no one backing or supporting it and i dont mean financially My fear is that ill be spending months of work for maybe nothing

Only local, but it does not matter who made it first, they already have game running

well i kinda did, that was written back in march 2021

Well for the most of it 🙂 , even down to the travel with "fuel"

i did play with zed city for a while and its like an exact copy of what i was about to do. But on discord they already told me hes not interested into working with other let alone sharing ...

Yes i got a PM from someone yesterday

Hi, i dont post here, but i do visit from time to time. But that's not why iam here. Ive always wanted to create a game or be a part of a big/medium project. I can code in PHP but lack the rest of the skills. Maybe someone is thinking the same thing? Who knows. This is in NO WAY a mafia spinoff or look-a-like or other copy's. It is based on a dead pbbg (zapoco) and the idea of GlobalCollapse (github). However since the game died and the owner is "gone" i think its a perfect opportunity to re-create a new game based on that "theme". Requirements? Easy coding! It will be based on Codeigniter 3 and fully based on PHP. Well we will need some JS ofc. So i may look for the following: html person(s), gfx person(s), idea person(s), discord mod(s)/admin(s), ..... I say MAY, cuz its all very early, i do have some code/idea, but no demo, so it MAY fall appart, i hope not. Let me know :)
