I don't think merely being able to download adventures from your site would make it count as an online game. :roll: An online game needs to involve the Internet at a more fundamental level than that.

What you're doing sounds more or less like Mette's compilations of user-created adventures/levels on her site.

Wikipedia wrote:Online games are played over some form of computer network, now typically on the Internet. One advantage of online games is the ability to connect to multiplayer games, although single-player online games are quite common as well.
Basically saying, an online game is usually one with no end, where you can meet other players worldwide and chat with them.

...

Now, imagine that as Wonderland Adventures with the official world, and a built-in user level-editor for people to use...


Maybe in the future, Patrick might try this... :wink:

I think it needs to go a bit further to deserve the "online" designation. For example, imagine that each player who joined the online world shows up as an NPC in some sort of "overworld", and clicking on that NPC (really a player's avatar if you will) starts a chat. Now that's more like an online game. (Ideas like having multiple players interacting inside an adventure at the same time naturally follows......)

Or if the game is still restricted to one-player, at least have it more than just a mere collection of disparate adventures from various designers. There needs to be an overworld the player starts on, an overworld that everyone is in consensus with regarding where each designer's adventures take place. The overworld can conceivably be expandable over time or evolves over time based on online updates. (I guess you can travel forward or backwards in time within this universe for the purpose of a particular adventure.) And perhaps there is a sort of integrated, in-game forum capability that allows direct interaction (not necessarily real-time like a chat, could be just PMs) between a player and the adventure designer for feedback, hints, etc.

The existing WA capabilities are just not quite there yet. We have a forum that's not integrated with the game itself, and other than Mette's site there is no official "adventure repository" or the like, and certainly no help in the game for getting new user-created adventures in the form of updates. And different people have rather different ideas on the background "universe" that their adventures take place in, to the degree that it might become illogical (from a storyline standpoint) for certain adventures to co-exist in the same universe.

In summary, JohnEmmanuel143 needs to be doing more than just

It looks like Y8 is for Flash games only, so this would exclude WA I think.

Also, regardless of Flash, I highly doubt Midnight Synergy would be okay with us distributing our adventures that way. You could PM Patrick and see what he has to say.
