Metaplace Community Spotlight: Life of the Party
Filed under: Betas, Game mechanics, Previews, MetaPlace, Browser
Within the gigantic sandbox known as Metaplace, there is a new game in town. Created by alpha tester DrOffset, this new game entitled Life of the Party helps to showcase the ease at which player-driven content can be created in Metaplace. DrOffset mentions the fact that his game has involved around eight hours of development so far, and most of the scripts he's used are from the wiki itself, freely available to anyone. His 2D artwork was created himself, yet he plans to animate them three-dimensionally.In his Q&A by Areae Community Manager Tami "Cuppycake" Baribeau, DrOffset explains the exact premise of his mini game and how he came up with the idea. According to Metaplace's motto, players can "build anything, play everything, from anywhere" -- and DrOffset's Life of the Party certainly demonstrates one way to achieve this in a simplified, yet entertaining manner.
