Gamut is the Volity project's first graphical client application, written in Java and usable on any Java-friendly computer.

Gamut project is still alpha and more useful to developers than players, but rapidly approaching a more generally usable beta.

Volity is a framework for developing online multiplayer games. Servers are written in Perl or Python, and the user interface for each game is written in a combination of SVG and ECMAScript. The client automatically downloads the proper UI for any game, allowing you to play games such as Hex, Fluxx, and Aquarius without any further intervention.

While most current games are board and card games, many different game types can be implemented and deployed within the Volity framework.

Requirements:
JRE 1.4 or above

What's New in This Release:
Added Help.
Fixes to make the interface behave better with keyboard input.
Private messages are sent using better logic.
Updated XHTML rendering.
