HoboQuest

A persistent browser MMORPG and collaborative canvas running at hobo.quest. The MMORPG is a full open-world survival RPG in the browser: 512×512 tile world, 7 skills (Combat, Mining, Woodcutting, Fishing, Crafting, Building, Cooking), PvP, dungeons, base building, daily quests, and leaderboards — all server-authoritative with client-side prediction.

The canvas is a separate 512×512 real-time pixel art board for collaborative art and territory battles. Integrated live on HoboStreamer so viewers can play together during broadcasts.
