A camera would be awesome

The world of Glitch is so fun to explore, especially as the new areas have more involved backgrounds (I love that you can see the tower from so much of Jethimadh). I would love to have a way to save snapshots of my little Glitch exploring the world, so I could look back and see old outfits, and remember when we were building new areas. I think a camera could be a really fun addition.

Right now, I take lots of screenshots of Glitch. But wouldn't it be neat if instead I could take a photo and zoom in on an area and get higher-resolution photo of my Glitch standing there in front of the scenery. It could have a border like an old photo. You could store it in a photo album. You could make film and photo paper out of paper and elements. It could be a new skill. It would also be nice to make multiple copies of a photo, and trade them with friends. Maybe we could even hang them in the Group Lodges once we have those.

  • I made a mockup of what I'm thinking of:

  • Love the mockup! We have talked about this for a while and we will definitely do it and some point (but probably not "soon"). But: yes!

  • im sure this was suggested a couple of weeks ago almost the same concept not the mock up but the ideas <_< should take a look at the other post maybe the ideas can combined into something even better.

  • Glad you guys like the mockup :)

    I mostly stole bits of graphics out of Keynote trying to make something like an old-timey photo album, so I can't take too much credit.

    There's been a lot of talk among players about some sort of souvenir of playing Alpha and Beta that they could keep. I think keeping snapshots we've taken and collected would be a really nice memory item that wouldn't confer any play advantage (like the idea of keeping your house).
