Our lovely mod Julia came up with a week-long event called Story Hive! The way Story Hive works are that you can only type one word per message adding to the story, one sentence equals a chapter.

After the chapter ended we put the sentence in a program called DALL-E which gives us a unique picture based on that sentence.

This is what it looked like in the #story-hive channel (with profile pictures and names blanked out for privacy):

                                    


Here’s the full story we created with our Discord community, made into a wonderful collage by James


If you want to see the story as it evolved then head over to our Discord and go to the #story-hive channel

A special word from Julia!

Story Hive was our first asynchronous game - that means that community members could play at any time so we didn’t all need to be online at the same time. We wanted a game that people could join in with whenever they had time and were awake and online!

It was really great to see members adding their words and seeing the sentences evolve each day. We created just over a sentence (one chapter) a day which is really impressive! We ended up with quite a weird and wonderful story with some crazy images to illustrate our words.

Story Hive was good fun and we may have to play it again - look out for book two! Or even join us to play the next game, we’d love to see you on the Discord 😊
