Text 100 Launches Expo Space and New Game in Second Life

One of the fun parts about having a virtual office in Second Life is the ability to constantly remodel, reshape and rebuild the space as the platform evolves and as we find more ways to integrate it in to our work.

Today we launched a new wing to our Welcome Center in the form of an Exhibition Space. I have to say, it looks fantastic. To kick it off, we’ve invited some of Second Life’s game designers to showcase their creations.

Among other things, the Expo Space will be home to a rotating display of Second Life community talent, whether it’s scripters, builders, designers or entrepreneurs. Our goal is to help bring different parts of the SL community together on an ongoing basis. We will have some upcoming presentations and other events to round out the Expo, so stay tuned.

As part of this first effort, Text 100 is releasing a game of our own called Get Set: The Name Game. It’s easy to learn and a lot of fun. 

The goal is to meet new people and explore SL as you hunt for avatar names to get pairs and points.  Think of it as a worldwide icebreaker without the awkward goodbyes.

Please stop by to check out all these games and help spread the word!

Special thanks to Rez Menoptra, Digi Vox and the rest of the ESC team for their help in bringing this vision to life.
