Neverland Theme Park Opens in Second Life 26

Posted by Zonk on Wednesday November 17, 2004 @05:35PM from the world-within-a-world-within-a-world dept.

The blog New World Notes, which chronicles events in the Online World Second Life, has several features up about the recent opening of a Peter-Pan themed Amusement park. Features include a review of the concept, an interview with the creators, and details on how the park was constructed. From the blog: "Neverland [is] a three-sim tribute to the world and wonders of J.M. Barrie, creator of the Peter Pan novels. Spellbound's efforts were assisted by Linden Lab, which loaned them use of three servers, for Neverland; some Lindens contributed their technical and creative assistance in the production, as well."

  Q: What's the difference between an astronaut and Michael Jackson?
  
  A: An astronaut bounces really high when he moonwalks, and Michael Jackson has sex with little boys.

As long as it's not Neverland Ranch I guess this is ok. Actually, the name "Neverland" has kinda been tainted for me now.

  Next step: Get an IT job at Six Flags so you can do all that in an amusement park!

Been there for a while, but for some reason I couldn't fly, and walking is rather boring...

  Reply to myself.
  
  After playing for a while there I changed my mind about the place. That place is really nice. Games to play (at least one), vehicles to drive (to compensate from the lost fly ability), free clothing, and people all over the place.
  
  Think I'm gonna try that Cop/Thief game as soon as I get more free time to play Second Life.

They do offer a free monthly account, you just have to pay 9.99 to get it going (Last time I checked.)

I didnt have time to log on as much, so I moved my account to the free monthly account. Which is nice, if I log in, I still have all the customizations and things I built. And if you log in once a week, you still get linden allowance.

Not sure how many other online servers that offer free service after you start. But you must pay if you want to own land, or belong to a group that owns land.

BTW, I havnt logged on in awhile, Guess I'll have to check out Never land when I get home. Hey, if Steam is down, might as well check it out also. ;)

I played around for aobut two hours last night. I have to say that running around shooting my parter was more fun that is probably healthy. Does it replace Doom3? No. Is it fun while you're in SL? Yes. The sword fighting was even more fun, but be sure to use a purple-hilted v3 sword. The slingshot was also a lot of fun. I had to try it half a dozen times to see if I could make it over both pirate ships.
There's also a lot of scenery that adds to the ambience. Look for aligators and a treehouse. Ev
