The Django-based Evennia MUD Server took another great step forwardtoday in adding support for the excellent South migration app. This should knock down another barrier for those considering beginning development on their own games. The kinds of schema changes from this point forward should be fully covered by the South migrations that we provide.

For those that aren’t familiar with Evennia, it is the first well-established MUD server built with Django (perhaps the first, period). This makes game development extremely simple, and gives us a lot of power to webbify games (take a look at the included web-based client, for an example). Twisted handles our network layer, and some scheduling. Another unique thing (as far as MUDs go) is that there is actually a good bit of documentation.
