5 Year Anniversary by Mars Cats Voyage

doing well, doing well. The intro music went wild there for a second. That I was already on the devil's lettuce. But none are excited for happy five year anniversary. Definitely excited for the space. Like and retweet. If you guys can get this go in, we're here to celebrate Mars Cat. No, I'm chilling. I'm chilling. Just came to join the conversation. For anyone that's having issues connecting, maybe you have to leave. I had to leave. Because I saw the invite and then I was like, oh, something's going on here. Because I couldn't even hear the audio. So maybe some people might not even be on the bus. But but I left came back in and everything's working fine now. You might have to update your app. I think two right. Some people were saying you might have to update. If you're on if you're on your phone. Oh, yeah. Yep. Yeah, okay. That could be it. But yeah, man, dude, you've been you've been killing it. I love seeing you super active in both the Abe chain and Robin Hood. Spaces and you know, you're just killing it. So just kudos to you, man. Love. I've always loved your vibe, dude. And you know, you've always been. I think one of the brightest voices. And you know, the realist also say like the realist where you actually. Talk about the stuff that needs to happen and you care a lot about the space. So it means a lot for you to come. To, you know, for you to come out today, man. Oh, yeah, definitely. Definitely. I've been missing some of your. The game times because it's just me. Well, trying to be more active, but also trying to balance it with RL stuff because I took a little break there. But nice to get back into the flow of things. I've been doing a little bit of the like eight church poker on the weekends. I can kind of catch that. I just jumped out of like the flinger Friday trying to catch up with some of the other spaces. But yeah, excited. Excited to celebrate. I have a few questions. You know, with everything that's coming with other side, the resources announced. I'm sure you're cooking. You're cooking already a nifty. Like, you know, I hadn't played that much there. But like you threw a few game nights. And I was like, all right, let me check this out. And yeah, just seeing what you've developed there. I'm sure you've already got a few in the community that you've, you know, the Mars cat community. And everything like I'm sure is ready to respond as well. Oh, dude, absolutely, man. That we've been having a lot of fun lately. With like three JS. I'm not sure if people are familiar with it, but it's like a browser friendly. JavaScript library, but helps you make like 3D designs. The Pudgy Penguin website is made with it that everybody likes. A lot of people have designed games like specifically in the browser using that. And it's something that AI just absolutely adores because it's super easy to move things around. So we've been diving really deep into that. And some of the stuff we've been able to create is quite astounding. And we're going to be putting out some stuff over the next few weeks. And I'll talk a little bit later as we talk about the website. But different things and tools that people can use like AI agent skills. They're going to help people create their own scenes in 3D using that technology. But what's awesome about it is that it's MML loves that as well. It's the same. It's basically the same sort of, I guess you could say foundation as what MML is using. So it's going to also make it easier for people to build MML scenes. MML is just less known of a technology or less known of a framework, right? For like building in 3D. But I think there's a lot of parallels between 3J as MML that I think we can really. We can take advantage of, right? So that means putting together experience like kind of what people have already seen. People are popping up. MML scenes in the other side. So using the other side as that terrain layer and then MML just like he's additional 3D objects and like games and stuff in interactions. On top of it, right? So there's where we're definitely going to do we've worked working on an experience as well. Our own kind of like. Sort of like what auto has otters been doing really good job at that and like I see up here in the stage that he's been killing it. Other games have like their own. Their own land as well. The people can go and visit. So we're going to have the exact same thing. And we're going to use MML to be able to to to give people some kind of like new experiences. You know, here and there. But we're also looking to do our own sort game on top of. O decay. And there's going to be some updates. I'm sure with the O decay. To kind of catch up to what Unreal Engine currently has out. That I think is going to be interesting. But yeah, dude, we're definitely. Looking at that. We also showcased yesterday. We're calling project are right now. So this we just a few for we had like 25 people jump in. And it's this new experience that we're. That we're also designing. It's something that we, you know, control. That's that's very much integratable with like. Most of the game. Worlds that are out. So we're also going to be looking to move that for. We've got some stuff in sandbox that we're working on. Some stuff in descentral end as well. But yeah, dude, what we're. I do. I'm like so excited for. For what. For what the other side is is cooking. I've just seen too much. You know what I mean? Like we've been as a community. We've gone to all the project dragons. If you've had a chance to look at any of those things. It's it's it's it's, but it's easy to forget like that stuff. Right because it was like a year ago. Or maybe even more than that like a year and a half ago. And we haven't seen it again, right? Like me, tropolis. Or some of these other like large maps that you know they've kind of. Made available for people to jump into on these little on these like voyages. And we haven't really seen them again, but. I'm just that's why I'm excited for other side is is I've seen too much. I've seen what they've already got. Hit it away and they haven't put out yet. For people to kind of use as on a persistent basis. And I think Abe chain it has has like the best builders in general. You know, if you look at just Robinhood. All the people that have. You know, use their skills on Abe chain and then take advantage of all this new tech that's coming out on Robinhood. Who are the bigger builders? Right. Who are the people that are leading a lot of this stuff. In on Robinhood. These are people to come from the Abe chain ecosystem. Right. And it's all people that still love the Abe chain ecosystem and they're trying to make links right and trying to grow. I think the pie. But it's not always easy to see that for some people, but. That's what kind of continues to make me feel bullish about. Other side, but also Abe chain right it's just a big magnet for I think a lot of the more serious builders in the space. I think that's what I think is the most important thing to do. Yeah, man. Agent, I'm excited to have you have you. Are you excited about the. What what part of like the resource. The economy that you saw from other side like was. What's what struck you the most. Yeah, I'm still learning. I'm still waiting to like just hear more of like how that's going to work. And I mean, I listened to most of when James was talking about about about it a bit. And I'm actually bigger tiers. So now I'm like waiting for some opportunities to maybe get some you know steals it like with some. Maybe maybe they're not higher tiers, but like they have a good amount of resources on them. Because I started collecting like tier fours, which I don't have a lot only have like two, but like I'm kind of like. Trying to snipe those because I heard they're like just more like bigger and of course tier five is a lot more price here. Different points. They were just. That was kind of my play. I was like in the long run. I kind of want to build out some like I have some ideas for you know, whether it's collections on on apron or outside. Because we've seen outside collections also included. So you know just experiences that could be built out or or in the long run. It may be even collaborating. I mean more of like what's gotten me excited is like as you mentioned the the OD case. Like seeing what different teams are starting to build out. Obviously there were the teams that previously are have already been building their experiences. And I think you know that we we've seen previews of that. What that will look like going forward. But now I'm starting to see some teases. You know I mentioned the flingers with what hyphus cook in like over there. Your teases in a bit right now. So I think like that that's what's getting me more excited. Because combining that with a little bit of like the AI assistant like I think yeah we're on the break of something exciting. You know obviously you mentioned a little bit of Robin Hood. There was some good news this week for for the US markets and holders over there. So I think like you know that could definitely bring a lot of attention to the space. And right now other side seems to be like leading with a good product in the space at least. You know so if games do go on chain which I think like I you know it's a big reason why I also was bullish on every chain for a long time as you know. Like yeah I think they're set up very nicely you know so it's you know very early as we stay much in the space. But I keep believing it's true you know. Yeah definitely man now you said you said it perfectly and and also like massive shout out to people that are. I think creating that foundation that's going to help attract people like tropical I think is tropical and angier doing God's work like just making it easier to. For people to understand like what you know what the ODK is. You know how to how to use it in unreal how to connect to all that stuff together and build experiences like even basic stuff. Like they got loads of stuff on YouTube people can go and and check out which I think is just an awesome. Gold mine right that you can plug into I've been going through a bunch of the videos just to catch up because I was on vacation when they had. Most of the most of the sessions for like that that boot camp kind of experience but. Yeah it's just I think we've got a really good mix of of things right that you want to definitely plug into ape chain and. We're going to be here and you know and like I said to lost on the spaces recently it's like you know if the boat goes down like you know we'll be playing the violin we we're not going to be floating on any pieces of wood. You know we're not going to be trying to get into the life rafts you know we we just we like to go down with boats if they go down right we we we we we go hard on the boats you know on the boats that we're on. And I think ape chain has great potential and other side as well right so it's key to me. But let's see 1984 what's good man thanks for jumping up as well. Yo yo what's up congrats congrats man. It's been a while journey I just wanted to say congratulations and I had a question about you know you spending this much time in here what was. Like the best moment you had with Mars cats. Wow what a question the best moment it's got to be I think the best moment I ever had was and I had a similar kind of experience like when we first got integrated into the into the other side but I have to say it's like early 2024. When nifty island went live in like their their public beta they first did it. And we had we had like an event going on and everybody was rocking a Mars cats avatar in like this Mars cat hub this like big structure we created specifically for for nifty when it went live. And everybody there like rocking out their names and the screenshots like for us that was like a big thing right because we would always wanted to do that like we're always very. Very focused on the metaverse and like that actually becoming something and so when we saw it in nifty we were like oh shit like the. Okay so technology was maybe just not ready back then in 21 22 so now is a time like you know we're going to start to see it right so we'd always been following like other side and seeing all the different things that were going on so think that was a start of like especially 2023 was fucking horrible I think for most nifty communities 2023 was absolute just like really really rough so just seeing that in 2024 has to be like the best. You know the the I think the best way to summarize it is like the like the the start of like metaverse kind of coming back to live to life some people will say the metaverse is an absolute joke but we're still very bullish on it and think it's it's definitely going to get somewhere that's better be it yeah. And I see we got order up on stage it's good man. What up Jay thank you for having me dude happy five year to the Mars cats dude. I got to give you your flowers obviously this is really an amazing journey that you know I've been a part of know for about two and a half years I'd say. And you know I started my journey in if the island building you know alongside with a lot of the Mars cat voyage crew. And you know got got to know so many of y'all and it's been so fun just coming together and building and you know seeing everyone else's ideas come to life in their own ways. And you know unfortunately you know we had our little thing with nifty but you know I think the other side is you know this next level you know for builders for creators for you know people who are ready to build. So you know Jay you're you're leading the way and you know you're setting the foundation for all all these creators and builders that are coming and you know we have trap who has been helping everyone else with the dev camps and and ODK access and stuff. So I really think this is time to tap in you know we're really you know in an awesome time you know market maybe marketing but just utterly appreciate y'all and thank you for you know doing what you do Jay. Oh dude man means a lot bro and yeah man do we've been fighting fighting side by side for quite some time right so you know despite what happened with nifty in the pause and nifty I think we found a good way to kind of bounce bounce out.
