I'm so sorry for approving this late. Didn't see it until now

Thanks! It's a big project yes, but we can do it 💪
Someone needs to come up with a new word for worlds/websites or whatever the hell is this 😅

Making a 3D wikipedia is really an inspiring idea yeah. To make that knowledge more visually accessible and interactive. I think not only wikipedia will transform, but a lot of other sources where we get information too

About integrating existing www into TheGates. I think it will happen at some point. Like rendering html pages into the world or in any other form. Maybe even making html pages into 3d looking ones like you said

A lot of enthusiasts will come up with completely new ideas which excites me the most about this project ✨

Possibilities are endless indeed! This is just a beginning
Thank you very much again :)

I wanted to support opening links from sandboxed environment (from game/site)

So instead of populating a ton of methods in c++ it's more convenient this way

You just send a command to main app with some arguments and it can handle it with gdscript (no engine rebuild)

Why not make it as a website? Isn't it all text and 2d ui?

You are welcome to contribute of course 🙌 You can find email in github if you wanna contact me))

As of the project) if it can be ported to godot why not I can help

How big is it in size? Can it be downloaded partially?

Hey!
I wasn't sure at that time what would be better for the project and realizing my ideas, dreams))
Going with open source and non-profit is really hard in terms of sustainability, also it will take a lot longer
With for-profit company you can raise some money, hire a great people and quickly scale :)

But I choose the hard one, coz this project is not about money.
And I don't wanna be held by a duty of making money for investors, stakeholders etc.
Instead of maximazing the value we bring for people

About adult content you are right! I have some ideas how to implement that, but it's not a super priority right now
The earlier the better, hah? You got me thinking))

Thank you for your comment :3

Yeah I'm really looking forward to open source it thank you :3
It's being really hard to bring sandboxing to windows((
But when it's done we consider doing that!

I won the game!!! It was all pleasure to play it:3 fantastic thank you

Hi! Thank you for your replay:3
You are right I'm thinking about open sourcing it a lot. And I believe it should be some day
It loads a lot more data for sure and it will not replace the internet at least for a few decades (we can't predict what will happen later)
But I think it brings a new way of distributing  projects that made in game engine with new advantages and I believe there is a lot of things that becomes possible with it

Very curious if someone really gets why I'm saying "new internet"

Can you imagine it growing so large like an internet itself nowadays?! Ecosystem with so many different "worlds" you can't even explore in a lifetime

Coz I think this gives an opportunity for everyone to release their creativity and build something very accessible with ease

Or am I wrong? :)
