Hey HackerNews community!<p>Are you a fan of online text-only games (MUDs)? Then you might be familiar with Mudlet - the open-source MUD client that makes playing these games even more enjoyable.<p>Mudlet is written in C++17 and Qt5, and runs on Linux&#x2F;macOS&#x2F;Windows - making it a popular choice for many MUD players. To put a banana to scale, our Discord server peaked over 1,000 online players this week.<p>To support the growth of our project, we&#x27;re excited to offer bounties for developers who can contribute their skills and help enhance Mudlet&#x27;s functionality. Whether you&#x27;re interested in implementing new features or fixing bugs, we&#x27;d love to have you on board and work together to make Mudlet even better! We have issues split in the $20&#x2F;$30&#x2F;$50 categories - for full details, see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mudlet.org&#x2F;2023&#x2F;02&#x2F;mudlets-new-1000-bounty-program" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mudlet.org&#x2F;2023&#x2F;02&#x2F;mudlets-new-1000-bounty-progr...</a>.<p>This is thanks to the successful Patreon we&#x27;ve been running for a little while - re-investing what we get back into the client to help improve the project.<p>Thank you for considering contributing to Mudlet, and let&#x27;s work together to make the MUD gaming experience even better for everyone! Mudlet has been around for over a decade now, we&#x27;ve only seen sustained growth, and we&#x27;re convinced that MUDs are here to stay.
