It's coded with Dream Seaker, but I think BYOND has browser functionality, if it helps. Also, if we go the Cowed route, we should follow the base icon system thing.

You need BYOND to play BYOND games.

Browser Functionality means that you can use the internet browser inside BYOND games for different things.

Byond :(  It would make me sad too.
I played it and coded some in past. I gave up cos its fact people cant stand the "lag" well attleast i dont.
But  it is true it is easy to make things but really cant expect anything good out of it.

Idea though is brilliant!

BYOND doesn't lag that much.

Sure, servers can lag, but that can happen with any game where users are running servers.
