Sorry this is late, but I spent much of today messing with it!
The actual guitar piece is very old. It’s one of the first instrumentals I wrote on the guitar, as I recall. Very simple to play, too.
Here’s the chords for the whole thing.
I’ve mentioned it before, and of course Gene hangs out here on the blog from time to time. But now that Adobe has put up a case study of Sherwood Dungeon, it seems like a good chance to remind everyone that this browser-based Shockwave MMO has quietly amassed 1.3 million unique players a month, with 4000 PCU. It’s ad-supported, I believe. Oh yeah — and despite stuff like physics systems, mocapped anims, and so on, this is a small enough shop that Gene’s email is posted on the website.
As it happens, my daughter got hooked on Adventure Quest (featured there at MaidMarian.com as well) while I was away at the Virtual Goods Summit. Within minutes of my walking in the front door, she told me that she wanted to spend $20 on microtransactions for something. I told her no. 😉
Basically, videos that show you real-world re-enactments of what virtual activities are like.
Like, say, this one for Second Life. 🙂
This is the final result from the Metaverse Summit I took part in last year. I have to admit I kinda slacked off on the follow-up participation. 🙁
In any case, the PDF of the Metaverse Roadmap is here, and I am sure it is full of visionary stuff everyone can argue about. 🙂
I missed the last half of the summit because I was either outside in impromptu meetings, or rushing off to the airport.
Fortunately, there were plenty of other livebloggers in the audience:
