Hello World (artsy not-game)

[timgarbos]

Hi,

I've been thinking about making some kind of collaborative story exploration game for a while and this Saturday I made a small prototype. There is not much tech. It's just basic Unity shapes and some fancy lights, but all the players can leave messages for each other. Currently it contains around 600 messages.

It's not super innovative or anything, but I think that it is somewhat interesting. Feel free to discover the world and its stories; hopefully more messages will come.

Ludum Dare (online game jam) had an not-game competition so it fit quite well. Entry here: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/minild-3 ... w&uid=2612

Nice job Tim.

As I told you, it's like Dark Souls without the enemies

Also very impressed, that you managed to do it in one day.

Fun concept. I'm wondering what else it could be used for, but maybe the fact that it actually has no purpose, is part of it's charm.

Sjov ide. Og charmerende i sin enkelhed. Ikke noget jeg vil vende til for at prøve igen, men det er da sjovt at trisse omkring og se hvad folk har skrevet. En slags interaktiv tavle.

Tak. Det var dog heller aldrig taenkt som mere en et lille eksperiment.

Just passed the 5000 in-game messages milestone :P

Also it got featured on Rock Paper Shotgun together with Thomas Ryders not-game

Jeg synes idéen er fed, og selve online delen med in-game messages virker rigtig godt.

Hvis der ikke allerede nu er planlagt at videreudviklere på det, så synes jeg i skulle overveje det. For det kan virkelig blive et fedt spil, hvis der bliver sat nogle måske lidt bedre modeller ind, og eventuelt noget man kan foretage sig udover at skrive in-game messages.
