Furcadia is an MMOSG (Massively Multiplayer Online Social Game), set in a fantasy world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals. The game is based on user-created content, socializing and free-form roleplaying. It is not a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) in the strictest sense; the game has no built in RPG continuity or a combat simulation system. However, these components of MMORPGs that the game itself does not provide are very often added by the players through the powerful customization system.

History


Furcadia is one of the oldest still-running graphical MMOGs. It was developed by Dragon's Eye Productions, Inc (DEP), and was opened to the public on December 16, 1996. Furcadia's engine was first developed in 1995 for a preliminary graphical MUD project called DragonSpires. DragonSpires featured a very simplistic real-time combat, and used a DOS-based client limited to the 16 EGA colors. At its release, Furcadia featured a graphical improvement: art with a 256 color VGA palette.

The original programming and design of Furcadia was done by Felorin/Dr. Cat and Talzhemir. Two additional people have since been credited as part of the creative team for their significant contributions: Emerald Flame (Katie Bazor), who developed (and coordinates) the Beekin volunteer staff project, as well as being the game's producer, and sanctimonious (Aleksi Asikainen), who created the game's editors and is now heavily involved in coding the client and the server as the game's lead programmer.
