FaintRedux is a Bomberman-inspired MMORPG made by Slippy. In addition to being online, the homebrew also has a point and level system, hence it is designated as a MMORPG.
It was submitted to the PSP-Hacks Homebrew Idol 2 in 2009.
User guide To play, you are required to connect to the dedicated faintRedux server (jj-serv), where you can face up to 8 players on a map. Also, the maps are editable and extensible for 3D modeling enthusiasts.
Leveling: Every kill is +4 to your experience points. Every death is a -1 to your experience points. 100 Experience points = 1 Level.
Dimensions: There is 8 players max per map, so after a map gets filled, a new dimension is created to hold new set. To switch dimensions, one needs to enter and leave a map.
To get to the lobby: Walk south in the Jungle to a little entrance.
Server Setup: Port # is 10101. It can be changed by hex editing the first word in server.dat.
Folder structure is as follows (all can be found within the bundle). /map/*.esm server.dat Server.exe
