Experimental Game Dev Project….Update

Hey folks,

As mentioned before, we’re going to change the model for the game development. Specifically, we’re going to discuss a current game in progress and the listeners can provide feedback/opinions to help enhance the game…the core team may take the suggestions.

In this case, the game is called “Whatever Quest”…this will be an public-service project…with the goal of making a free game that everyone in the world can use.

Wikipedia is a great way to find information on any topic in the world. But…what happens when you want to find/access any experience in the world. Wikis/web pages aren’t perfect for that…but games are perfect for that…the goal of “Whatever Quest” is to “game-ify” all of the experiences in the world.

For example, if someone wants to go through the experience of training for a marathon, they would be able to go on here and find quests that they can join to help them train for a marathon.

This project is much more experimental and novel than the original space-shooter project…so let’s see how this works out.

You can check out the game here…
