The following review is the opinion of the review's author [James Cleland (Balmung)]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I've been with the bebop crew for quite some time, and it's had its
ups and downs. Player interaction can get harsh, and sometimes you
feel cheated or picked on. However this is the best sci fi type Mud
I have ever seen, tons to do, lots of interaction. Even when you get
mad you find yourself coming back to it just to get another taste.
If you're bored or sick of fantasy muds/star wars clones, try this one
out, you won't regret it.

Being around Cowboy Bebop for so long now has led me through rough
times just as James described. But what is life without hard times?
One day you're up then the next down. You can't get yourself back up
unless you want to, and thats why I've chosen this place as my home
away from home forsay. This is more like real life struggles that get
easier to deal with as time goes on and as you learn. Check it out,
you will like it.

Don't really want to turn this into a flame war, but I feel the
overwhelming urge to point out that I know the owner of this mud. I
have played, I believe, all the muds he has created.
And while I will be the first to step up and say he is a wonderful
coder and even go so far as to say he is a pleasant person to talk
with...He is severely lacking in motivation. Or perhaps he tries to
do too much at once. Not sure :)
Anyway, his projects either die out or are basically unworked on
for very long periods of time.
The mud itself isn't horrible. I wish he would work more on some
of his other projects though :)
Anyway just thought I would let people know.
Artimis.

You may be thinking of someone else... I'm the owner, and this
is the only mud I've started. While I do have other projects
outside of mudding (which I am slowly phasing out,) the mud is
currently my main focus. Also, I'd like the point out I'm a
very mediocre coder, but due to the fact that the mud is now
open source, a lot of great coders have been contributing
lately.
We've been doing a lot of area releases and code changes. I
spend most of my time overseeing the staff and contributors.
Also, due to the free nature of the game, I really have to
work harder in moderating the game than coding, or else it
all falls apart.
Sure, there was a period where the game was 'unworked on.'
That is to say development had been halted due to the fact
that we were very understaffed. But in opensourcing the
game, a lot of those problems have been fixed. Anyways,
hope people get a chance to check the game out.
