RE: Rising Star Re-design! Calling all creatives!

in #risingstar10 months ago

Can we have a new channel for this in the RS discord so that those of us who aren't able to design can still make contributions and/or discuss what they would like to see?

Sort:  

We want to avoid getting into discussions about what people want at this time and concentrate on the look and feel only.
If, however, you want to make suggestions regarding the look and feel then please do so here as not everyone uses discord.

OK. I was thinking about look and feel I suppose but I was curious to get some discussion going with the musicians of the community rather than the pure gamers. Whether it is attractive to musicians to upload their music even if they don't play the game etc. Primarily stemming from my first thought when I read the post which was who are we trying to attrack? Bigjammin refers to "both musicians and gamers" and I got to wondering . . . 🙂

My view as that it's gamers first as we need to show musicians that there is an audience for their music. I already developed and ran Atom Collector Records for a few years and I came to the conclusion that a pure music focussed app has no chance against the likes of Spotify. Rising Star allows us to grow the audience first then attract the musicians. Once you start selling some of your records as NFTs it becomes clear that it is better than trying to make money on streaming services.

That in itself is great news.

My request to the designers then would be to make the fact that you can sell your music more obvious and a frequent reminder but whether or not that comes under look and feel I don't know.

I just LOVE the idea of musicians being able to sell their music here.

Could the design incorporate some of what the guy at Hive Fest was talking about or is that a completely different project? Just thinking outloud now as that most certainly was not just "look and feel".

Right now we just need to create a better way to present the features we already have. The less that has to actually be modified to create a big impact the better and I think it will be possible to make the game feel completely different by just changing graphics and the way things behave when you use them.
