Proxima Online User Guide

Proxima is a retro inspired 2D top-down sandbox MMORPG. 

Being a sandbox there is no endgame or goal other than to have fun and make your own stories.

Gameplay consists of playing how you want, you could be a simple lumberjack and chop trees all day or maybe you like fishing? or you can venture down a ladder into a dungeon and fight monsters and become a hero. Maybe you prefer to just sit in town and chat to other adventurers?
