Anyone remember playerworlds/elysium? Other old engines?

Just going down memory road toady and thinking about all the engines of the early 2000s. Whats everyone's first memories regarding these old engines?

I started with Playerworlds, had some pretty awesome mappers working for me. It was pretty amazing what some people could do with 3 layers.

Ahhhh thats some nostalgia. Any idea if you could find some screenshots or anything? Im gong to compile a little history of the hobby

I played XtremeWorlds.. it is quite good, but the distribution of sprite is suck..

I wish to see more screenshot about the game you made using those engine

Here you go Kazuto. This was made on Xtremeworlds.

Any favorite 2d mmorpgs anyone has played on these old engines?

Konfuzed was my first contact, which later evolved into Greentail, then Steel Warrior.

Some time ago that! Think my first game made was called "Age of Dragons" lol and made with konfuzed! Wish I still had some screenshots, but lost through time.

Anyone remember Pingu, if you were about back then?

EDIT "Holy crap I've found Greentail or its successor should I say Steel Warrior! lol (Still cant find Konfuzed tho).

Screeny for good old times, from a time when spells were text and images / icons were things of wonders!:

I'm probably one of a handful of people (literally 5) that had the opportunity to play Mirage while Consty still hosted it. Nostalgia indeed.

Similar to many other here I started with Xtremeworlds and moved over to Eclipse afterwards.

I remember Mirage, Xtreme & Playerworlds. I had never really made much public content on them more a 12 year old getting lost in making games that were never made! I then discovered eclipse whilst being an avid user of the rob maker series I then actually was drawn to eclipse because of the thriving community

XtremeWorlds was my first Mirage engine. I worked on Benign Online then made my own game over a 4 year span, and finally came here when Robin moved to Eclipse (had messed around with Mirage Realms too before going to Eclipse Origins and Eclipse Stable before that just never liked Eclipse until then, and many others after Eclipse Origins). I followed him a little bit before that when he was working on Essence and Essence DX8.


The scaling is off due to it being taken a long time ago via a Netbook (the font dpi is different which causes the text to be much larger).
