Median is a raypunk (retrofuture)-themed online world with an emphasis on personalisation, in which players stake a place for themselves on the cosmic frontier.

Overview

Players create a personalised character from one of 5 galactic races and set out on a journey to adopt a trade, claim bounties and generally assist their species' efforts in the cosmos.

Players are encouraged to:

• Ply their trade for profit and personalisation - unique combinations of materials from playable worlds can lend their gear items a very personal touch.
• Challenge themselves on untamed worlds to earn Feats of Glory, while social players may team up to combat fierce alien menaces, ingratiating themselves with the otherplayable races as they do so.
• Create an online identity they can share easily with friends and the player community - in Median, every space-faring explorer has a story of their own to tell.

Median is purely an experiment for me; it's not something which I intend to see made, but it still grants me an excuse to write, draw maps and practice game design documentation.
