Three Rings, developer of
massively
multi-player online games, today annouced the release under an open
source
license of their Narya toolkit for creating online multi-player games,
the
same toolkit used to create their flagship product, Yohoho! Puzzle
Pirates. Concurrent with this release, they launched the Game Gardens
website where developers can collaborate
on
game design and development, and host, free of charge, games developed
with
the toolkit.

"The combination of the toolkit and the hosting site eliminates many of
the
hurdles a budding game developer faces when trying to turn an exciting
new
game idea into something people can actually play online," says Three
Rings
CTO Michael Bayne. "We're hoping to foster experimentation in game
design
and provide hobbyists and indy developers with a place to share ideas
and
evolve their designs with the help of an audience of their peers."

The Narya toolkit is developed in Java and works with the Windows,
MacOS X and Linux operating systems.

Three Rings is a San Francisco developer of online games. Three Rings'
