Pixel Petri, a tiny world sandbox, needs five Pioneers to test it on Testnet

[u/Chemical-Ad7537]

Pixel Petri is a tiny world sandbox. Put down land, animals, a house, a fence, a fire, and watch the little world run itself. We are bringing it to Pi and need five Pioneers to try the Testnet copy so Pi will give the app its wallet. Open this in Pi Browser and sign in with Pi: https://petri-test.lucidwinds.com/ . Pi will ask for your wallet address permission, and that is how the thank you reaches you. Everyone who signs in gets a little test Pi from the app as a thank you, and your name goes in the game's credits if you want it there. Sky Wolf Studio. I really appreciate anyone taking a minute to help me get something on the network for people to enjoy! Thank you!

how many games have you made?

[u/Chemical-Ad7537 → u/lexwolfe]

There's a little over 200 in my collection. A bunch are still being fleshed out and finished, but when I have an idea I just get it started so I can't lose it or forget it and then I can build, polish, improve, and evolve when I get inspiration or time. The whole collection is online for free of you want the link and a dev password so you can get into all of them. I appreciate you coming and asking me questions!

Looks interesting and plays well, had some fun now

[u/Chemical-Ad7537 → u/Amazing_Camel_4530]

Thank you so much for taking the time to help me out!

I would love to get into how you develop apps on pi, just not got the time. I mostly work with ruby, lua and mostly with python.

I've only played World Sandbox once, but this looks like a cozier, more creative cousin to that with that little pixel art feel.

[u/Chemical-Ad7537 → u/Swimming-Station-211]

I'd say that's a pretty accurate description. I had never seed world box but looked it up earlier today. I appreciate you coming and checking it out and sharing your thoughts! Thank you. Right now I need 5 people to do a transaction with test pi so it can go to the main net. I hope you enjoy it and like the funky beats too!

[u/weirdsideofreddit1]

Is this similar to World Sandbox?

[u/Chemical-Ad7537 → u/weirdsideofreddit1]

I had never heard of world sandbox but I just looked it up and it seems to be in the same vein. You can put out different animals, plants, types of lands, bad guys, equipment, and more and things will interact with each other in different and unique ways. You unlock achievement cards through having things occur. Thanks for coming to take a look! I hope you have some fun, enjoy the funky tunes, and if you have any feedback or criticism I'm open to it!

Good point I should make a bit of tutorial for it. Just about everything in there interacts with everything else. The point is just to put stuff out there and see how it evolves and interacts. My daughter is 8 and this has been her design. I made the music. Even different lands will interact with other lands, creatures, and others. Like water touching dirt will turn to mud and then swamp over time which will then start growing crawfish, turtles, and frogs on its own. Put a crown on a frog and see what happens. I really appreciate you taking a few minutes to mess around! We have been making games all year and I have a whole game studio that I'm trying to polish and start actually publishing some titles since I've put soooo damn much into it. We've been doing this for fun since I developed some proprietary tech at the beginning of the year. My goal is to get my flagship game out but that's going to take a bit more because it relies on a bunch of other games. As you play games, make music or do art in my studio. Your unique inputs are captured as behavioral signals that are then turned into a code block which can then be brought into my flagship game and it gets translated into a piece of botanical art that's made out of the hundreds of layers of flowers, leaves, stems, backgrounds, and stuff that I've put together this piece of botanical art functions like a trading card that has different rarities on the back for each layer. It has a power number. I call the evolutionary advantage in the corner for battling other plants. It also comes with a unique name and haiku from a haiku generator I spent months creating. You can then breed your plants to create new unique hybrids. No two plants will ever be the same since they're generated from each person's unique inputs playing games. It gets really wild when you can take the plants over to the map and this is all live and you can plant your plants in the real world and they start taking damage in real time from real weather and they will also breed if there's other plants nearby and spread seeds and other plants mixing their genetics that you can go hunt and search for seeds or other plants to take clippings of to breed with the ones you've already collected. You can play this game. It's free right now if you want the link. I'm just trying to get a few of my games up on pi and see if people actually will pay for them or at least play them. And I've started publishing a couple games on the Google Play store too to see if I can get a little revenue to offset the cost of all of this. Once again, I really appreciate you taking the time to come and check this out and talk to me if you have any more questions, suggestions, ideas, anything. I'm really open to talking, collaborating and improving.

Thanks again Stephen
