If you’re about to receive a Godd™ Particle in the mail, meaning you’ve ordered one or more of them already, you should know that it’s only weeks away from Release, and you’ll probably want to know what’s in it, what’s new, what’s different.
You might even want to know what a Godd™ Particle actually is, and what it’s for. Well, here are some answers to those questions:
The Overworld Map contains many connections to outlying orbs representing the interiors of various buildings in the town.
In this build, all exteriors are in the Overworld, all interiors are outlying orbs, separate maps connected by an OSTRAP, but tonight, I won’t get technical. Let’s just look at the basic facts here.
Just a walk around town will take you quite some time. If you visit any of the shops and other interiors, you’ll find yourself spending additional time, of course, and that could run into hours.
All the orbs are designed to be covered “at a dead-run”, meaning you don’t let up on the mousie and you don’t collide with walls and things.
You’re picking up affirmations, Blessings and guiding directions as you go, and you’ll go at a dead-run, of course — that’s the only way.
A Dead-Run Run, or “Speedrun”, is all-but-impossible for a newbie, but hey, anything’s possible, in this world of make-believe and, with luck and application, even YOU can master the SpeedRun.
Of course, in the virtual world, you have to obey the Apparent Laws of Physics, but they’re all expressed in quantum mechanics, so don’t worry too much about them.
The world inside the Godd™ Particle has no objective size. It exists apart. Is it real? Yes, it is, at least to its inhabitants. They regard you, the caretaker of their universe, as God.
You receive their blessings every day and night, and you are free to send your own Blessings to those living inside your particle.
There are two major things you can accomplish by going into the Godd™ Particle, which you do by merely plugging it into any USB port. You can run the program without having to install it — it runs right off the jewelry-grade fashionable flash-drive; just let the chain hang down.
The orbs in which you will be running around were built by our development team over a period of more than 25 years, and we intend to bring out an upgrade every year. This is the first major upgrade of the Godd™ Particle, and it brings in a lot of additional options, most of which will be obvious when you get in there.
You can change more things, exercise more choices, and narrow down the hoped-for results, if any.
I will be giving demos for the first few weeks after delivery of the new release, so you’ll have some guidance first-hand, and there will be published a detailed map of where to find what. I’m working on a map indicator in-game, but that might delay things too much.
We’re planning another major upgrade for next year, and we’ve already started working on Stuyvesant Town, Musso & Frank’s Grill, Grauman’s Chinese, Roosevelt Hotel, The Dank Sewers, The Docks, Creative Handweavers, Jabberwock, Metamorphosis, The Barnyard, Old Age Home, Rural Bus Stop, Tinroof Shelters, Alpine Village, Ferry Boat, Carnival I & II, all of which are pictured in the original BardoTown photo release. Interested? Ask.
BardoTown — Overworld Map
You find yourself in the Bardos. Do you recognize it? Are you aware of any changes? Do you know where to go, what to do?
You will see before you a number of shops, buildings, tunnels and more, some of which open up into strange and unusual interiors, in which are a variety of Guides.
You’ll also have an opportunity to “Power-Up” with a wide variety of candles, incenses, oils, perfumes, salts, earths, powders, runes, amulets, talismans and charms.
Some Guides will offer Blessings, and all of them are here to listen and to help.
Cross Candle Co.
This is Aunt Nettie’s little establishment, on the far-eastern northern side of the Boulevard. Let’s go inside, where we can see a variety of candles, oils, incenses and more.
Here we can pick up some energy and create vortices around us.
Chen-Rig Temple
This is the temple they maintain in town. The other is far-off in the high mountains of the Northern Realm, which can only be reached by Those Who Know, defined by “those who come to our workshops”.
Compleat Enchanter
The place to go for all enchantments, which means of course, all possible controllable quantum effects, which are not that many, but enough from which you could make a living.
In the Enchanter, you will find absolutely every variety of heavy core solid silver CQR Crystal Quantum Radio Amulets.
You can pick up a special ammy in the back of the shop, along with a bunch of great powerups for the day.
Gemini Psychedelic Supermarket
Here you can link up with Guidance, get inner spiritual help, assistance with mental, emotional and physical objectives.
Lots of powerhouse affirmations here, plus connection with great super-beings — disguised as common folk, of course, like yourself.
Cosmo Street
Here you hook up with your Soul Group, commune with spirits and in general get connected on the spirit side.
There’s a name for folks like you — ghosts. This is the Realm of the Supernatural, and it is here that you have access to your oracle, through the gateway door at the back of the second-floor hallway.
Ishtar’s Realm
Here you can confront your oracle and ask or say anything. You WILL be heard. I will respond in my own voice to your comments, questions and answers.
You can return the way you came in, back to Cosmo Street and out into the overworld map once again.
Magical Mystery Museum
Here you will find a relatively easy maze to work through, with several keys to get and use on locked doors to gain access to Hidden Knowledge.
Magic Theater
Here’s where you take your major step upward from “Avatar” to “Player”, simply by drawing back away from the Magic Theater’s Magnetic Screen that has captured your attention for so long now, and you’ll be able to drag yourself upward on the Steep Slope to the Higher Plane, which you’ll be on when you emerge from the theater.
Norton Street
This is your primary goal, yet not the end goal. You will find various powerups here, but mostly you’ll want access to the God Cube.
There are 3 Equal Powers here — entities who balance between themselves the absolute control upon Creation, Maintenance and Destruction.
Beings on the Causal Plane will generally hardly notice you, if at all, as you pop up, and bubble back down. However, if you succeed in this work, you will not sink back into the floor.
God Cube
In the God Cube, you have very limited actions. One of them will eventually be to return to the Living Room in the Norton Street apartment.
LRS Orb
This is a full run-through of the 49 Days, with my vocal instructions guiding you all the way. You can find this marvellous orb by poking around in Norton Street.
Only AFTER you’ve gone through the 49 Days should you proceed on to the next challenge, which is …
Red House Crestline
What a great place to visit, and there are rich spiritual treasures and powerups to be had here.
The Shire
A brisk run through the countryside will result in receiving powerups and Blessings by the dozens. At the end of the run, you return automatically to BardoTown.
Warftown
Yes, it’s spelled correctly. It’s a large, complex and somewhat challenging labyrinthine maze of things, places and stuff. Go find. Eventually, you’ll figure it out. Maybe.
Now you’re ready for the “optionals”:
Subway 3/Immune 2
Take the “A” train. Pardon me, boy, is this the Transylvania Station? Track 29. Can I give you a shine?
You find yourself in “Immune 2”, where you will find many good things before you return to downtown BardoTown.
Museum of Unnatural History
I won’t explain — just go take a look. Enjoy.
GetRich 3
You’ll find the entrance to this level in the southeastern part of town, down by the docks.
At the moment, there are issues with four of the levels, and we’re working 8-14 hours a day to clear those issues and get the entire layout working precisely right. We’re 99% there.
Most of the improvements you will notice right off — they’re about the sheer quantity and abundance of Blessings and powerups for all occasions.
See You At The Top!!!
