Show HN: My first iOS app, a modern MUD client for iPhone and iPad

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue. Fortunately a friendly MUDRammer[0] appears to lend aid! http://appstore.com/mudrammeramodernmudclient

MUDs are online multiplayer text-based games. There are thousands, set in fantasy, medieval, Sci-Fi, absurdist, and many other worlds.

MUDRammer is a modern MUD client focused on speed, readability, and flexibility. It stays connected in the background[1], syncs your settings with iCloud[2], has themes and font size control, plus Triggers, Aliases, Gags, and more! More about MUDRammer: http://splinesoft.net/

MUDRammer is on sale through February 15 for only $1.99 (or your local equivalent).

Behold, iTunes redemption codes!

[0] The name "MUDRammer" is an alias of one of my more enthusiastic Dutch mudder acquaintances.

[1] Up to a murky iOS maximum duration for background connections. I post a local notification after 8 minutes in the background assuming the limit is ~10 minutes, but I've also seen background sessions restored successfully after 6+ hours idle.

[2] Syncs only key-value preferences. I couldn't get iCloud sync to work reliably with Core Data.
