Okay, not really. We all love Glitch and want to make babies with it. But there are some things that keep poking at me that need addressing.
1. Projects suck. See Zeeberk's thread, for example: beta.glitch.com/forum/gener...
We've talked about this a fair piece on the forums, but they still seem to be feeding frenzies and not helping build community. I am off projects lately.
2. More broadly, it seems like "community" is broken right now.
3. There must be some way to allow players to create. Granted, I don't know the right path here, and we can't do minecraft-level creation (though I kinda wish we could, 'cause minecraft is excellent), but there must be a way to allow it. I do think this will (in my vision, and probably not TinySpeck's) require a shift in control over what each location looks like. Right now, all we can change is what trees are planted and what animals are there. We need more.
4. Everything that can be done by players should be un-doable, though probably with a higher skill level. For example, I know that too many critters is an issue for Flash. But a player can't move a chicken or a butterfly. We can only move pigs. We should be able to place and remove all critters. It also kinda bugs me that the block makers become permanent fixtures... though I don't have that skill yet, so I don't have any use for them, so they just seem like eyesores.
5. I am sorry about the butterfly garden, but only sorta. It was beautiful! What I wonder here is if instead of rules or dev intervention, the world could deteriorate in a way more obvious to players and that players would have to clean up a world too cluttered with critters (or whatever). Too many critters (or whatever) could trigger the rook, or a more general call to community help, and players would have to fix it.
6. It will probably help at some point if there is some kind of a global bulletin board that has announcements including current or projected street projects, other things that need fixin', information about new lands opening, etc.
7. What does the new world look like? This is a little related to 2, in that I wish players had more of a hand. I know TS folks work hard to make each location, but I wish as players we had more control. Yes, this feeds right into the "let us create" refrain. I think this would be more of a reward than trophy pieces. And again, as long as things that went awry were fixable if a disaster world were created, it would all be okay.
Okay, I'll shut up now.
