11 years ago I began working on an indie MMORPG. I put it aside for a long time, and finally came back to it last year. Today, I'm proud to share a fully playable pre-alpha of Makers' Wake.
The pre-alpha is a small but complete slice of the game. It includes:
• Levels 1-10
• 15 distinct classes, each with 3 mastery paths to specialize in
• A 5-man dungeon with 6 boss encounters
• Randomized loot and unique items you can build a character around
• 8 crafting professions, each with rare recipes to discover
• Ranked arena, including 1v1, Solo 3v3, and a leaderboard
My goal for this pre-alpha is to get feedback on the game's core systems. I've focused especially on responsive combat, a clean interface, and classes with distinct playstyles. Once the foundation feels right, I'll start expanding the world and releasing new content as it's ready, and I want the community to be part of that journey.

I'd love to hear what you think in the Makers' Wake Discord:

I'll personally read and consider all feedback, and it's still early enough for it to shape the direction of the game.
If you'd rather wait until the game is further along, you can also wishlist it on Steam:

I'm excited to finally share this with everyone! See you in game!
The internet is going into a LOCKDOWN.
Hundreds of millions of websites are potentially at risk from cyberattacks.
Governments, banks and major platforms have already taken their websites OFFLINE.
Many are already calling it “Black October.”
At the centre of the shutdowns is something most of us have never heard of, but use every day.
PHP, the software behind roughly 7 in 10 websites, has two critical flaws that can let hackers break in without a password.
Dubbed PHP2Shell, both are rated 9.2 out of 10 for severity.
Details began circulating on Oct 20. Emergency fixes arrived the next day, but attackers were already moving.
Cloudflare’s CEO says hacking attempts then jumped from thousands to MILLIONS within hours.
Cybersecurity agencies across several countries are telling PHP site owners the same thing: Patch it now, or take it offline.
Websites have gone dark worldwide, from government portals and hospitals to banks.
CrowdStrike warns these attacks leave almost no trace, so some sites may not know if they’ve been hit.
Around 2.6 MILLION internet-facing servers run PHP, potentially hosting hundreds of sites each.
Over 1.1 million use older versions no longer receiving official PHP updates.
Older installations may need an upgrade to a supported PHP version or a fix from their software provider.
And patching does not remove a backdoor an attacker may already have planted.
Cloudflare also says hackers are now tweaking their attacks to try to slip past its protections.
But PHP isn’t the only security story unfolding.
-Japan’s Onamae suspended ALL Desktop Cloud plans after malware was found on customer servers.
-India’s eMudhra had 8 website-certificate keys so weak, one was literally the number “4”.
-State Bank of India confirmed 3,897 customer records on the dark web.
-Criminals used AI agents to break into 400+ Latin American banks.
-Capcom confirmed a breach exposing 11.7 million email addresses.
-GitLab disclosed a 10/10 severity flaw in versions going back to 2014.
-LiteLLM removed a malware-containing release. Railway reported possible exposure of customer secrets.
None of these has a confirmed link to PHP2Shell.
We’re seeing separate breaches unfold together.
The true number of incidents could take months to come out.
The world is still on alert. Attacks are still coming.
Going against a 6-0 person in my fantasy football league this week. The projected score has me beating them.. but im not too confident on the outcome lol.
I feel like tucker kraft has been a major bust, honestly a YOLO play with slotting josh jacobs and if henry has another terrible week. I think ill crash out. WISH ME LUCK.
@x62904 And don't get me started on a kilometer! 😜 But yeah spend billions redoing every road, tool, and recipe so we can measure stuff in units nobody here uses. Not too practical here in the states. 😅
@x62904 If i didn't go to the gym i would have never learned, but i reluctantly agree with you. Haha i just don't like it! 😅 but i refuse to use meters and all that nonsense.
@YTabboo@bloomjpg Lol feel better? Who knew an opinion would cause such a temper tantrum. Big cuck behavior on your end, also the irony taking place atm is hilarious. 😂
@SFirst50450395@JaKiTruth@Darnell_Smith95 Yeah, guessing you grew up with a single mother too. lol you're far too emotional and feminine with how you respond, and also you're displaying closeted homosexual behavior.
@SFirst50450395@JaKiTruth@Darnell_Smith95 There's always one ignorant person who brings up race randomly. lol can call me what you'd like, but you can't call me a liar. 😂
