I've been writing a Web-based, multi-player text adventure which is sort of a cross between Firefly and Mad Max, spanning all star systems in a 20 light-year radius around the remains of Sol. I have a lot of the core work done, with a Perl/Postgres/Catalyst/PSGI stack, but then my daughter was born and my wife and I are starting our own company. If you've ever heard of http://www.torn.com/ http://www.torn.com/, you have a rough idea about game play. The main difference is, aside from the background, this one is heavily story-based.
My intent was to make it free to play, but given significant advantages to those willing to make a minimal $5 donation per month.
I've always wanted to finish it, but I never found enough volunteers to help.
