Comment on Text-based Multiplayer Shooter

This was actually a lot of fun for a few minutes. I felt a little nostalgia for BBS games.

I think it could do with mnemonics for the more tedious commands to type (eg. le/lw/ls/ln for look east etc. and fe/fw/fs/fn (fire) me/mw/ms/mn etc. etc.). I think a 'run' command that moves you away from the last gunshot (or in a random direction) would also be a welcome addition... either that or make players harder to kill. Otherwise, it was fun walking around a level mostly on memory. The exit directions became very handy.
