Apocalypse Gaming Engine
The Apocalypse Gaming Engine (AGE) is an Open Source PHP Text Based Gaming Engine created by Josiah Wang (LegendaryFox).
Sam (Kaje) was once and still is a developer for the project but maintains a commercial gaming engine he calls the ApocCore Gaming Engine (ACGE).
The reason for this is that Sam learned everything he knows about PHP from Josiah and the core of the ApocCore engine is similar in structure
to the AGE. Though ACGE is now a completely rewritten form of the AGE, with no residual code (thus maintaining an independent lisence as opposed
to an open sourced license), the core values of the two gaming systems are similar. Both seek to create a highly moddable PHP gaming system that
involves multiple players interacting over one key commodity: land.
Sam is less involved in the open source AGE now than he was in the past, however he continues to actively program both engines.
The ACGE is the engine that the games at ApocNation.com use, while the AGE is located at Sourceforge.
When two friends diverged, two games were born.
