Orb.farm
Orb.farm is a pixel-art glass bowl you can fill with water, sand, stone, wood, plankton, fish and other things useful for the creation of underwater ecologies
A wonderful in browser simulation game that lets you create a virtual underwater ecosystem where different species of creature can live, grow and die as part of a self-contained food chain.
I wrote recently about ‘Wind-Up worlds’. Orb.farm feels like one.
But it seems to me that it would benefit from the addition of a ‘slow-social’ experience.
What does an orb game look like when its been tended and looked after by a group of people over ‘years’? What does a group/collective idle bonsai tree game look like? one thats had 1000′s of collective hours of attention given to it? What would a game like this feel like to play?
