Are you bored with Glitch? Out of quests to do? Suffering from debilitating ennui? Wondering if debilitating ennui is a skin condition?

Why not try a secret mission?

Better yet, why not write your own?  Bend other glitches to your will!

Have an idea, and you're not sure whether it means you're a genius, evil, or an evil genius? Try it out in the Sandbox Group!

  • This is worth a million bumps. Here's one.

    Seriously, when we make more fun for ourselves & each other ... omg I just realized we could build a Perpetual Fun Machine. 'Scuse me, I've gotta go file some patents.

  • The sandbox group is, IMO, a symptom of a serious design problem in Glitch.  Exhorting players to "find something to do" is a pretty good symptom that Glitch as a game is not fun in the long term.

    Glad some people have found something amusing to do.  I'll keep an eye open for an update that suggests there's more of a point to the crafting engine (or something.)

  • Yarrow, I disagree.  I think that Glitch is a game that opens itself to cooperative gameplay and new ideas.  Maybe there needs to be more end-game content, or quests, or other things I'm sure they're working on or will be working on in the future, but I wouldn't call it a "serious design problem" at all.

  • I don't think it's necessarily a symptom of "what's wrong with Glitch" as it is what the game is about--it's a sandbox game, where you have the freedom to make it what you will. 

    Now, I sure wouldn't mind more quests, myself, especially with story to them. But in the meantime, I do find it interesting and fun to see the ways that I and others can make our own fun in the world.  It's a very creative experience, which a lot of games that are more scripted are not.

    Oh, and, invites sent. :)

  • If you're the type to write your own mission or create a game for others to play, check out the Street Games Route. ;)
