Wow, this is really weird. I never knew flash could do this.

Got to Free MMORPG at Maidmarian.com - Free Massive Multiplayer Online Web Games (http://www.maidmarian.com) and click on Sherwood on the left side. Just type in your name and login.

I remember reading that there was a lot of interest in using Flash, or rather the underlying vector graphics technology that's the basis of Flash, to make video games. The main benefit being that you could get nice looking graphics for 5-10% of the file size, which is good since art files are usually among the biggest.

I'm assuming that this is one of the early projects in that field to see the light of day, and it doesn't look that bad all things considered.

Should be interesting to see where it goes...

Yeah I've played Sherwood before. I'd have to say it was pretty impressive for a flash presentation. This is was a really time ago though. Not sure if it's any different, since I can't tell and my school denied access from basically every video website they know of, and that's a lot.. And not to mention I'm at school ;P.
