  Umbra is a computer role-playing game written in Python, similar to
Alternate Reality and Bard's Tale, with influences from roguelike games
and console RPGs, and set in a universe of Lovecraftian elder gods.

  Umbra features random generation of a huge game world, 3-D graphics
(well, sorta; don't laugh unless you can do better!  I can do better, so
I can laugh at my own...), and not a lot else yet.

  Right now, I mostly just want feedback on performance and the
interface, if it works on your machine, if I'm completely insane to be
writing a game like this in Python, why there are two Arthurian items in
the town for testing (and there may be a Grail somewhere!), or whatever.

  I'll likely go open source with it once it's a bit further along, but
don't expect that for a while.
