File: GatherTown !! Welcome to Gather Town ********> width="50%" ! Introduction Gather Town is a place where you can have video and audio calls with people based on wandering around a virtual space. You get connected to people you are close to, based on the interaction distance that you (and they) have set. At right is a basic outline of the ideas, there's a more complete and more official introduction here: * https://support.gather.town/help/movement-and-basics The system is under constant development and has changed in many ways over the past few months, so any on-line introductions or tutorials you find on-line might be out of date. The basic ideas remain - wander around, get close to people, and have video calls with those around you. Play !! ******** width="5%" ******** width="45%" ! Basic ideas: * Use the arrow keys to walk around; * You can't walk through furniture; * There are "Private Spaces" ********> *Outside* a private space _ you get connected to _ anyone *close* to you; ******** *Inside* a private space _ you get connected to _ *everyone* in that space; ********< * You can mute yourself and others; Currently it only works reliably on a laptop or desktop using Firefox or Chrome. It sort-of works on a phone, but all you can do is move around, and video doesn't work. It /may/ work on a tablet. ********<
