The end of the world: A Starbucks next to a Starbucks.
Cool idea. It lagged a bit.
Are there any statistics about users, characters and area?

I mean more like, not completely public. Get like 10 friends to work on the whole world who have an interest in making an interesting game world. You could make a huge, interesting world pretty quickly like that if you all collaborated in real time on it. |

That would probably work...So, you need some sort of "hub" or "backbone", and there are a bunch of rooms leading off it. Each room is kind of an "instance". Someone goes into a room and if it's unclaimed they can claim it. Each person can only have one (or two, or three) rooms claimed at once, say. They can move around and place blocks and puzzle elements, and they can bestow privileges on other people to let them move around blocks and puzzle elements. Then you can "register" a room, which blocks all modifications. Once you've registered it, you can "verify" that it works with certain tasks; moving from the W exit to the E exit, or letting the player acquire an item. So, a room that allows two-way travel between at least two exits is eligible to be used as part of the "backbone". Am I close?  |

There was something similar that was attempted called The Knytt Experiment. There was very little gameplay involved other than exploring the user-created levels, but I found it to be pretty cool nonetheless. |

Am I close? Ya sorta, I don't even mean for user generated content, as this would work great as an in house private level editor. It'd be a lot of work to get it good for user generated content, but it'd be really fun to design your game's world in real time with other devs or friends. |

A collaborative, network-enabled level design editor, huh? Sounds good to me!   I think a good way to do that would be to have the level editor be very similar to actual play. Just with a couple extra functions, like teleporting your character around, placing and destroying objects...So, in other words: "The editor is the game." (I feel like I've heard that before, but honestly I don't know where...) Maybe you could have a puzzle game that was also collaboratively played. Like, The Lost Vikings, only instead of switching between the characters, each one was controlled by a different player. So the level editor could be collaborative too.  |

I've been very interested in doing a prototype like this for quite some time, I've been held back by my lack of knowledge of how to make the Flash Client play nice with the sever and other clients. But I do love the idea of collaborative level editing. |
