- KVFinn 5y ago>I've heard TikTok described similarly compared with YouTube. Makes me wonder if there's room for a "TikTok for games" IMO it's the remixing that makes TikTok work. The equivalent would be every game is open sourced and remixable in easy ways. Like the way you can take one TikTok's video audio and recontextualize the meaning with your own video. Or an audio track can become the format that everyone follows by using the audio.
- japhib 5y agoPico8 has remixing too. You can view the code for any cart, and then download it, change the code/art/sounds a bit, and reupload it. There’s a super active Celeste Classic modding scene in pico8 for this reason.
- bodge5000 5y agoI absolutely think there's room for it, but I have doubts about how feasible it is. With tools like bitsy its possible to create an interesting game really fast, but nowhere near as fast as a tiktok video, and the "time to variety of things you can do" ratio for video is far better than it is for software. Maybe it is possible though, would love to see the day if so
- tapoxi 5y agoDreams on the PS4 is a little like this. Every game loads instantly, and every asset is remixable into other games and offshoots.
