MUA (moo-uh) stands for Made Up Acronym. Or maybe it is a recursive acronym for MUA: Unknown Acronym. It is purely a joke; don’t take it too seriously.
MUA Games is a small group of hobbyist game developers. We have no industry experience – we are just here to make games. We are currently developing our game framework to use as a base for all our games. The framework is intended to provide a robust foundation that takes care of many of the things common to most games (networking, 2D/3D engines, physics, GUI, input, etc) allowing you to spend your time creating the things that make your game different, not those that make it the same. The goal is to have a solid framework from which you can select the pieces you need, coupled with extensive (and actually useful) documentation and COMPLETE, working examples and tutorials, including entire game source code. We have found that one of the hardest parts of working with some of the other tools out there is just learning enough to begin. With the amount and style of tutorials, docs, and examples included with the MUA Framework, you can START with a fully functional game then learn what you need as you go along. We hope the framework will be useful to both hobbist and professional game developers alike and plan to showcase all it can do with our first run of games.
We are always looking for enthusiastic people of any skill level. There are always jobs to do from design to testing to coding to artwork. If you can work as part of a team we can teach you the rest.
