    Shout-out to the dearly departed theclub.zone, which did this with a bit more panache (as well as a punishingly difficult secret platformer puzzle).

    But imho, the truest club experience is the short game SLAVE OF GOD by Increpare:

        I don't want to push now because it will restart the server and break all connections :/

    Trees are dying because of this game. The epa should go after these folks for all their money.

      Isn't that true of all games, and even for comments on this website? Sorry if I am just missing the sarcasm.

    Very cool to vibe out with folks anonymously. Almost like the old days where you could go to a rave and be you without fear someone would take pictures or people outside the rave would know who you are. Would love an option to cycle skin colors / tones.
    • stagas 11 minutes ago
      Yeah, skin colors is a good idea and good for first PR :)

    Rave chat was working fine until I wrote "I think rust is overrated" and I can no longer see my or anyone else's messages. Yes, really.

    I think allowing jumping would add a lot. looking over the top of a whole crowd would be more visually dynamic.
    • stagas 10 minutes ago
      Good idea. PR will be accepted.

    Kinda cool! What's the max concurrency?
    • stagas 21 minutes ago
      Should scale pretty well to hundreds, only key state changes and clothes/messages/etc changes are synced when they happen, it uses dead-reckoning, client authoritative and it's pretty accurate/fast.

        Ah cool. So you replace NPCs with real players as they come in, or add them into the mix?

    No mobile support????? That's like one quick ask to a shitty AI.

      The code is right there and MIT licensed. Be the change you want to see.
