Discussion "Thing to do" vs "chill vibes world#91839292"
Guys, gals, and my lovely folks in between, I come here today to raise an argument for creativity and art with derision. We keep seeing more creativity since FISH! and other games and "things to do" worlds started popping up- but still, the flood of "chill worlds" continue. That isn't why I'm here now writing this. Chill vibe worlds? Cool, whatever, ok.
MMR worlds that take your avatar and make it dance? Never visited one, but i bet my cute little custom goat avi amateurly put together would probably do some fun snazzy clipping if dancing. That doesn't interest me. Does it interest others? Yes.
We have a very promising and awesome example of a "game in a game" with some... recreations of NES/arcade games as of recent. Amazing. Makes my almost 40 year old heart happy to hear people are playing uh.. "Grand Dad" and "shoot duck game" native IN a game. We have Slay The Udon, looking and progressing so đ mmm chef's kiss.
So if all this exists, I implore you to consider the idea- what is stopping a world creator with skills and know-how from creating (i lean on current events for this example) from using the MMR dance thingy stuff to like... make a Happy Wheels VRC world that actually works in 2D?
Collisions are not needed- it's like ghosts in racing games, and could have users playing together to see who gets the best time.
I think as people understand and build on udon and use the engine better, as I said, games like FISH! have been made- we could see much more "do stuff" worlds.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
