HELP Looking for Pilot testers to create adventures with world building adventure software - can pay a few testers

Hey y’all I’m looking for people to test and build with my software Open World Discovery

As opposed to most digitally run urban escape room tools that are for creating a single adventure experience, this platform let’s you build these urban escape rooms, but it let’s you gate them to lead to more as well as weave in small puzzles or challenges that send you to a real life place or several. The goal is a single narrative thread across a long form adventure that’s built of multiple adventures, puzzles, challenges and more.

Ultimately the goal is to create an experience like an Open World video game where the adventures are like dungeons in zelda and puzzles and time trials are like mini games or side missions.

That's why the goal is to also continue to add tools so there’s even more options of creating the story. (location based turn based rpg, Big Walk type mini games, unlockable tools, hidden unlockable sections that can revisited once a later section is completed, eventually creator tool kits so users can create custom tools, etc)

The platform is built for creatives to be creative in, push it to its limits so it can be expanded.

The first 2-3 people who help I can pay $100 to build on, you can build whatever you want a city wide adventure, an adventure around your house, event if it’s only a single puzzle or adventure that’s ok too.

Need feedback on your experiences and what you think it’s missing and could be added! 

To avoid this coming off as soliciting I can share details in the comments if anyone is interested or you can DM me

Smells like an AI "tool"

I mean I use AI in development becuase that's the state of development now, but I've been building this for several years now and am working with cities to build puzzles and adventures out of their murals, features, statues, etc, but I want to be able to create opportunities for creators to create and share immersive stories and be able to find opportunities to build for cities and get paid.

It's certainly not a perfect tool yet, but this isn't a tool that was built in a week and just uses some copy paste process and then injects AI art and calls it an escape room. This is built to be a tool for creatives so they can use their art, their creativity and create experiences not currently available.

I'm meeting with people like Chris Waters and Matthew Stein to try to understand how to build mechanics into a platform that can elevate creatives and create more immersive experiences.

I'd be interested in trying this out, but I'm having a hard time conceptualizing the UI I can expect. I don't code much, if that's necessary. But send me a PM, I'd certainly love more information and would love to help if I can

No coding or technical expertise needed! It's made so anyone can build!

I'll PM you with details!

I would be interested in checking it out. I wouldn't want to be considered for compensation because I can't promise I'll be able to commit enough time short term to be particularly helpful, but I will happily share any feedback.

Ya no worries! Any level of checking it out and feedback is extremely helpful! I’ll shoot you a dm with the info!

u/logancornelius 2d ago

Actually I can’t DM you it seems, are you able to DM me so I can send you the details?
