+i like to imagine blending concepts with a MUD, interactive fiction, text
+based adventures.
+
+so in one part it's moving around like you are in a mud, room names, short
+description perhaps, long description perhaps, and a little ascii
+representation that perhaps renders on the left or right or above or beneath
+room description and available exits
+
+
+however, i love what trenton gave us. the ascii worlds that update on
+movement/look and have you centered in them
+
+i love the math of the combat, you could understand damage with percentages as
+a function of your powerlevel, which was also your health. stamina emptying
+also had you passing out, iirc. tbh i dont entirely remember how it worked. im
+actually quite fuzzy on it atm
+
+let me type some of the combat commands
+
+punch right/left [target, not needed if u have an active target aka in combat]
+roundhouse [target]
+dodge right/left
+duck
+jump
+parry high/low
+
+you might see:
+
+jake arrives from the west
+jake pulls back his right fist
+
+this informs you that you had better parry high or dodge left
+
+parry high was roughly needed.. in a small window.. not RIGHT away, and not too
+late
+
+all commands took time so you could just parry high .9 seconds oto early and
+then instnatly fire it agtain, yhou had to fail the parry first or something
+
+we will honestly have to tweak all tthese timings
+
+---
+
+so i said we're on an ascii map, that was earth
+
+you could travel around earth and find mobs to find
+
+if your powerlevel was 100
+
+and you fought a mob that had the same pl let us say, you could earn no mopre
+than 10 pl from then, 10%. but if you were 1000pl and killed a 100pl, you
+wouldnt gain 10%, the function doews account your actual power level too
+(diminishign returns i guess idk, means yhou gotta move on and fight more
+p[owerful mobs)
+
+
+what i really want to think about though isnt all these details from ONE dbz
+mud i played
+
+but, the.. framework to suport:
+
+ascii mobs, combat, that kinda stuff
+
+tweaking it, expanding it, etc
