Could I?

Could I use torque to make a game very similar to Runescape (www.runescape.com)? I know that RS is written in java, but If this could make a game similar but better, then it would be more benificial. I don't want to make the game as big as RS, just a Multiplayer RPG that I can put on the net for me and a few people. If I could figure out how to write in java, I would make it in that.

Technically, it is possible, but would take a lot of work. First off you'd have to find a way to integrate C++ code into a website (probably still need to use Java to do that) and then make the game in torque and put it in as a program launched by an applet. Alternatively you can just make whoever wants to play it download the game, which would cut down on Lag, improve the possible graphical usage, and FPS.
