A post in the general forums by Nanookie (http://beta.glitch.com/forum/general/4346/) asked a question about what type of experience you would want to see if you were to return to playing Glitch after having stopped playing for an extended period of time. This is an idea I had for such a scenario...
Keeping within the fun and wacky spirit of Glitch, this is what I would love my experience to be if I had been away for some extended amount of time...
Upon logging in I find myself in a world frozen in time from the moment my account was "paused" or "frozen." All the animals are still, players are frozen mid-step or mid-jump.
POOF! Next to me suddenly appears a time machine (perhaps in the style of an old antique elevator). Interested I jump in and I can now whisk myself back to the present and resume playing OR...
The time machine elevator offers up some moments in time to stop and visit.
Perhaps these moments in time are events in the Glitch world I missed... a new world unlocked, an intense rook invasion in Groddle Forrest, a horde of tree killing lumber jacks cleared out West Spice, who knows.
Having felt like I have caught up with missed events, I finally whisk myself back to the present. Upon exiting the time machine antique elevator I find my home, all kept tidy and neat. My plants all tended to. Before I can ask how...
A Glitch avatar looking just like me approaches and explains that he is me from the future and had come back to keep things tidy while I was away. And just like that he enters the time machine and POOF! He is gone.
Maybe one day I will catch up in time with my future Glitch self!
