what about a canvas that is online for way longer, like a couple of weeks, BUT it is read only except during peak user times, and/or the weekend.

give more time for attention and hype to build up, while still restricting the time people have to place pixels. it would also give people who want to place as many pixels as possible and make bigger projects have time to go outside and touch grass, as well as use the 6/6 pixel stacking.

Maybe all of Lemmy could play a game like chess, pokemon, etc. Like twitch plays videos.

I wonder if making the colours partially transparent could work as an interesting / fun twist?

Easier login functionality. I never got in for some reason, after inputting the code I received to get in. Tried multiple browsers including firefox and chrome

Don’t end till there are no more virgin pixels.

What about designs that contain white?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You paint them white properly so they no longer show up as as virgin pixels.

I don't think this was possible this time, but someone suggested this possibility upthread.

Smaller canvas, to make it feel less empty and encourage more communication across communities (or competition! >:] )

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Canvas size, active participants, and total running time are all factors.

I liked the fact that there was enough room for everyone to get their initial designs down—once that’s out of their systems they can look around and have more spontaneous interaction. Maybe a bit more time would have allowed for more of that.

First of all, thanks for this event. I love things like this.

Then i have an idea for the next canvas. What if the virgin pixels have no cooldown. Only already placed pixels gain more and more cooldown. A bit like on everyonedraw.com. this way the canvas would be full very soon, then the wars begin. I understand that many dont want rivality but i guess there are some who do want. Maybe it could be alternating. Obe year peaceful, one year war.

Maybe some other game at a different time of year. Perhaps some arcade games or something.

Then again, this thread is old

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

i should probably create a new thread, but i was thinking about doing that (the other games idea)

if you have ideas for any you can dm them to me via matrix or discord (grahhnt)
