Hey there guys!

katzenStory is a project of mine that I started few months back, learning the art of programming in MapleStory environment. Starting off in a lower version, we ended up (for now) in Destiny Patch which is v233.3, the Explorer Master including DB and Cannoneer.

katzenStory Discord
Our new and temporary site:
https://sites.google.com/view/katzenstory/katzen

The server is still far from perfect, as the server missed content of 3 years (v206->v233), but we are catching up, quickly. I have rebuilt all the crucial systems, allowing the server to run properly.

Once we catch up and integrate our custom content, we will start updating versions once again.

Probably first waypoint will be v237 (Cygnus Revamp), the second will be v246 (New Age).

Main features

- Fully F2P, there is not going to be any P2W aspects such as hearts or any BS, DP is going to be used to get longer duration of the same items that will be sold in VP shop, to support server upkeep
- Free Pet Vac for everyone, will be acquired through voting
- No tutorials
- Every character starts at level 100 with an Onyx Maple set
- Mob aggro will be applied
- Increases mob spawn (amount of mobs)
- GMS-Like spawn intervals
- Custom content will be added, such as bosses and/or fields for progression
Where you come in place?
We need testing, as much as possible. As many of the systems were rebuilt (Database integration, timers, handling, networking and more), we have to stress it the best we can to ensure we can stand the loads.

We have a section of skill-bugs for all classes, some are bug-less and some still have some gaps to be filled.

The Alpha testing is not the real gameplay you would expect, as I allow you to use many testers commands including adding nx and mesos to your character, so it could be fun for people that would like to play around.

The Beta testing is currently scheduled sometime around January.

Alpha & Beta testers will be rewarded with a small gratitude (such as medal or a legion block), and maybe more stuff.

So come and join us on our journey to become the number one maplestory server out there!
(Im the community manager of the server, the owner is not on the forum here, feel free to ask anything you want here, but i would recommend asking on our discord channel)
