hypermush is an introduction to p2p technologies, their functioning and user-application, disguised as a multi-user-shared-hallucination (MUSH) videogame.

MUSH are an evolution of MUD, multi-user-dungeon: early multiplayer text-based adventure videogames from the '70s.

We're gonna use the MUSH game dynamics to explore the p2p dat protocol, and build shared interconnected narratives by way of dungeon explorations, user group formation, file tradings, key discovery... until it gets hyperreal.
