Next iteration of landing page + missing links

Open vidvidvid opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

What would you like to be added?

Let's gather ideas for the next iteration for the landing page here. I'm opening the issue mainly because I noticed that the links are missing or wrong.

Add missing links to various parts of the landing page:

The wiki link: Screenshot 2022-01-15 at 19 04 23

the final buttons lead to nowhere: Screenshot 2022-01-15 at 19 13 29

Enable navigating through the 'slides' by pressing arrow buttons

scroll-behavior: smooth ← ↑ : previous slide → ↓ : next slide

Play around with some threejs animations

@luxumbra @tommymaher15 ideas?

Why is this needed?

Links are missing + we should make the landing page epic

Text corrections

alec's comments:

"Metagame is any approach to a game that transcends or operates outside of the prescribed rules of the game, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game."

What game? This doesn't really mean anything to me. Seems like this should be a bit more accessible

"A revolution is happening online; will you join or miss out?"

Should be a comma not a semicolon

Guilds: "For those who want to: Help finding tools, frameworks & funds accessible. Help getting value-aligned contributors & adopters. Become a part of the "new world" puzzle. "

Get help, Get help, Become

I was exploring the idea a while back but maybe a 3d animation for the first slide: Like a metagame Logo that was 3d? would love to hear others thoughts on this if its a good idea :)

Pretty much what I was thinking for the first section. I was asking if any of the 3d artists have created a 3d mg logo and Misanth had started one but never got to finishing it due to GPU burnout.

I have been thinking about it and I quite like peths idea to have a kind of Neo/Rabbit hole scene (wake up Neo) that the user scrolls through, reading text like it's on a old skool monitor. Screen glitches and a hand beckons for the user to jump in. I also thought about (& bought) an Octopus that would feature in the flow but not sure. We definitely want a logo with a field of stars behind it or something as a first section.

That would be awesome. I was looking at some tv glitch effects using three.js too this could be useful:

Thats a general idea but there are tonnes of different examples out there that could work better.

What about the flow of the page? Will we be going down the route of slide transitions or scrolling through?

We could make support for both, but most pages that I looked at are mainly done by scrolling.

Awesome. I wasn't sure which was happening. Exciting nonetheless!

the landing page: how about a medium sized area...[land, plane, floor] the ( easter eggs ) big old MG🐙 vaporwave text in the sky with an OCTO to boot and the super dope model being shown in the cord server
