Summoner Tycoon

Welcome young summoner! Ready to make your mark on the world? Put down some roots? Build your house on a layline to generate excessive amounts of mana to overcome your enemies? Well come on down to Summoneropolistownville where we have vacant lots to spare! Set up your very own home with your friends. Conjure up some cute cuddly slimes ~~more to come later~~. We hope to see you soon!

Summoner Tycoon is a Tycoon game. The gameplay is simple. After you spawn in you claim a plot of land and start to accrue a currency. In this game, mana. You do this at the layline  ~~totally not based off of the devil's trap from supernatural. I'm not addicted to that show now hush!~~ And use the lecturn to summon your very own cute workforce to gain faster mana and build your dream home! ~~Amenities coming in future patches~~.

This game has plots for up to 8 players. To get started enter your name and enter the IP of the host... unless you're the host.  One of you then hit host and the rest hit join. When someone hits start game it starts up for everyone! ~~Careful to not join after the game starts up... things get weird and alternate versions of you are also *summon*.~~ You should be able to have up to 32 players if some want to team up and help gather mana. If you need to port forward, the port is currently under "8910"
