Otherworld
A browser-based crafting game, where you can intimidate others, travel, cook, and make babies. The game currently has almost no graphics save for the water and stomach icons, which turn from happy to sad when they're low. The game is played in the browser and requires registration. If you confirm your email address, you can have multiple characters (currently up to 7). It's allowed to cooperate between your own characters. You can also dominate other people's characters or make babies, which grow up into children you can use as free labor. Other players can take over child characters and start playing them.What I'd like to know is if being text based is a complete deal breaker for most players, and would adding graphics add appeal to the game? I'm a professional graphics designer and I have made digital art since 2003, so I could produce art for the game, but it's more important to know if the core mechanics are functional enough, because there's no point in putting lipstick on a pig if the foundation doesn't work.
