Hi Product Hunt! I'm Domingos, and I run OpenMU, a free Season 6 MU Online server that you play straight in the browser, on desktop and on phones.
Why we built it: the original game needed a ~1 GB client, DirectX tweaks and a PC. We wanted "open a link and you're in Lorencia". Browsers can't open raw TCP, so a small WebSocket bridge talks to the open-source OpenMU server (C#/.NET), and the client is TypeScript + Babylon.js (WebGL).
What we added for players: a player-to-player market (pay in zen or any of the 7 jewels, items held in escrow), a drop lookup on the website, a public balance lab (a training dummy records real skill damage), and a friends panel. Every new account gets 5 days of VIP for free.
Honest notes: the server is in Brazil, so players far from South America will feel latency. It is new and we update it every week.
Feedback I'd love: how it runs on your browser or phone, and what you'd want in a browser MMORPG. Technical write-up: https://openmu.hashnode.dev/runn...
