INTRO

welcome to coniunctio mundi, the world where worlds meet.
the website is dedicated to the story of a project.
before starting it is advised to read the legal notes.

############################################################
THE VERY IDEA

coniunctio mundi is a virtual world.
it's a project, an experiment, a personal research.
the idea is to create a world populated by digital entities.
a world to which also human beings can access.
human beings access through digital entities, the avatars.
an avatar is a controllable digital entity.
digital entities interact between each other.
the interaction contributes to the shaping of the world.
this application can be compared to a video game.
but it is not exclusively a video game.
the concept of video game though, is included in it.
for convenience the related terminology will be used.
initially the app will be playable in a single-player mode.
this phase is necessary to create a solid structure.
eventually, the multi-player mode might be introduced.
this mode though, will have to be added gradually.
the project is developed on a personal computer.
all programs used are free software.
the purpose is to make it work on old and new platforms.
graphics are indeed inspired by games from the ps2 era.
here are some apps used for the development:
- blender
  modeling software, used for the creation of 3d models.
- gimp
  image editor, used for the creation of images.
- panda3d
  game engine, used for the creation of the app.
- python
  programming language, used to program the app.
- ubuntu
  the computer used is equipped with this operating system.

ABOUT ME

my name is andrea and i'm passionate about virtual worlds.
i played several massively multiplayer online games.
i like the idea of a parallel world where to exist.
i like the dynamics that arise in these places.
and i'm very intrigued by their design.
the development of my first video game dates back to 2015.
it was titled malcom's day.
the publication took place in 2019.
after a short break i dedicated myself to this project.
it was a curiosity that had been on my mind for a long time.
in 2020 i started testing various ideas and programs.
i accompanied this by writing a document.
a detailed design of every aspect of the world.
(eg project structure, objects description, etc.).
this study phase lasted for more than three years.
once over, i started the concrete practical work.
i also deal with other disciplines including:
- design of video games and other software
- blender, modeling software
- python programming
- linux enthusiast
i designed and developed this website.
