  • Silicon Valley doesn't understand the concept of fun
    Old-time TV used to have ads for alcohol, cigarettes. Late-night shows, sometimes risky in europe (i.e. tits) had ads, lots of them. Google + Facebook, like the puritanest of the puritan americans have made that a no-go. It's not clear who decided it first, but basically anything that the local church might frown upon has become unmonetizable and unadvertisable. Of course you won't have fun things when you do... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
  • Hold the postmortem: The metaverse was never alive in the first place
    The metaverse exists for 2 decades in second life. It's where people go to live enter 'the world' and live an alternate life. It doesn't matter if it's not VR because the important thing is to trick the brain.\ There is the open source version of it, OpenSimulator with a few thousands of diehard users having all sorts of fun in their own self-hosted simulators (https://opensimworld.com) . Ironically these worlds... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
  • Creating a new character on OSgrid
    Also, there are numerous free malls throughout the Hypergrid. Go to opensimworld.com and have a look around and read the descriptions for the various shopping areas. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Second Life on GitHub
    Opensimulator is the open source project There are thousands and thousands of active regions and thousands of users (https://opensimworld.com/). It's not millions, but it s the best self-hosted virtual world ecosystem. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • there's more than one metaverse
    It's a pity that everyone ignores Opensimulator. It's open source, free, decentralized, self-hosted, and it has thousands of regions and users already. Source: over 1 year ago

  • Be smarter than these pirates, drink responsibly!
    This makes me want to make a Lego Sauerbraten map. Source: 5 months ago
  • A Brainfuck interpreter written in PostScript
    Out of curiosity I landed at http://sauerbraten.org and was not disappointed by the video. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
  • LÖVE: a framework to make 2D games in Lua
    The editors are basically immediately off limits for anyone who wants to mod the base game rapidly for their own enjoyment. A concept like http://sauerbraten.org/ is interesting, but seems to not have taken off for various reasons. Lesson learned I guess is that being able to customize is not everything. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
  • N-Space 2(?) progress update
    N-Space 2 will let you build on multiple levels of detail. Instead of a single size of cube, there is an adjustable "grid" which scales from 1/16 of a block to 2 blocks. This massively expands the possibilities for modelling. I was inspired by the Cube 2 engine, which has a similar approach to building on different levels of detail. Source: about 1 year ago
  • [PC] [2000s] era shooter game where you could create a map for someone else to play?
    This might help, sounds like an unreal or quake game. Maybe Cube 2 Sauerbraten as well. Source: over 1 year ago
