Considering signing up for this:

Embark Studios is a Swedish game studio. The above is an early access sandbox thing where players are supposed to be able to create their own content.

I'm still undecided, though. For one thing I don't play or care for playing a single one of the "creative" games they have listed (though you can add "other") and for another I'm not sure how much time I'm willing to spend on something unpaid that may or may not be enjoyable....

And it's MMO, btw. I don't mind but I know you guys usually do.

I think I'll pass. 

More like it needs an objective of some kind to keep my interest. Creative sandboxy games are often fairly entertaining up to a point and then rapidly become quite boring.

I suspect they have more of an objective than that, in the end, but as I understand it, their objective is to build a sort of tool/enabling community rather than an actual game. And then the users will be able to provide new objectives for each other, I guess. But for now, it's probably just trial and error and sand-boxing.

I just ended up on that page when I got a bit bored with work and looked for job ads. They wanted graphics artists so I read on, not that I'm eligible or anything... But then I came across this info on their website. I liked Cybertown back in the day because I could contribute material, and I liked Aywas for the same reason. So I'm thinking I might find it enjoyable to be a part of it from early on. Maybe.

Yeah... The form asks how many hours you spend on those "creative games" and I'm kind of worried that if you're honest and say "too many hours in a day" they'll expect you to spend ALL that time on their project....
