Meet Proxi, the New Game on the Block
Imagine a life simulation game where your avatars can arrange dinner with Napoleon or engage in a mythical cage match between Cleopatra and your grandma. Welcome to Proxi, the latest brainchild of Maxis founder, Will Wright. This new life sim is not just about creating a character—it’s about deep diving into their memories and creating wildly imaginative scenarios.
The Memory-Focused Adventure
In Proxi, players flesh out the inner lives of their avatars, called proxies, by typing up their memories. These memories get transformed into animated scenes played out within what Wright dubs the ‘mind world.’ Wright describes it as almost Wikipedia-like, where players craft community-built entries that expand a character’s well of memories. It’s not just about the game—it’s about building backstories so rich they could rival even the best historical dramas.
Scenario Wonderland Awaits
During a recent stream on Breakthrought1d’s Twitch channel, Wright teased potential scenarios players could explore. Imagine launching into an epic dinner party with da Vinci and Cleopatra or witnessing a spectacle as bizarre as a cage match between Cleopatra and your beloved grandmother. With the integration of AI learning, the personality of your proxies could be impressively nuanced. Each decision feeds back into how they behave, making every playthrough unique.
So get ready, gamers! Proxi isn’t just another title in the life simulation genre; it promises to bring our wildest imaginings to life—one memory at a time.
