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

    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 love silly stuff like this and can only hope that with AI we see more of it. Enjoyed dropping in and the beats were fire.

    I like it! but without ability to execute own dance moves, not really dancing... Tried with keyboard but it didn't work.. Now imagining infrared webcam thing and some DIY stick on reflective things.. set up your own rave cave, attach sensors, dance, your virtual self mirrors... now you're raving

    I think allowing jumping would add a lot. looking over the top of a whole crowd would be more visually dynamic.
    • stagas 36 minutes ago
      Good idea. PR will be accepted.

    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 37 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.
    • stagas 23 minutes ago
      It was crashing so you were losing the connection. Now this should be fixed.

    This is really cool!
  • helloplanets 36 minutes ago
    Did this get hugged to death? Not loading for me at all.
    • stagas 22 minutes ago
      It was crashing but now it should be ok. Until a new bug arises.

    Seems to be down! Timeout

    add a real player count
  • SLHamlet 55 minutes ago
    Kinda cool! What's the max concurrency?
    • stagas 47 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.
      • SLHamlet 27 minutes ago
        Ah cool. So you replace NPCs with real players as they come in, or add them into the mix?
        • stagas 21 minutes ago
          Add them. The graphics support many more. That's why it's low poly. Of course if it gets popular I will start reducing the NPC count. Now they're there otherwise there's no "rave party" feeling.

    Looks like you have a serious moderation problem, there are racists running around using n-word racist slurs

    usernames would be cool chat too

    The people who worked on the metaverse must be jealous

    Trees are dying because of this game. The epa should go after these folks for all their money.
    • stagas 24 minutes ago
      That's why we planted a tree in the game.
    • submerge 30 minutes ago
      Isn't that true of all games, and even for comments on this website? Sorry if I am just missing the sarcasm.
  • AgentMasterRace 58 minutes ago
    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.
