Obelisk Sky: A 3D village where every NIP-29 group is a house
Hey nostr! I work on Obelisk, a group chat client for NIP-29 relays: think Discord, but your key is your account and the community lives on a relay you can run yourself.
I made a second client for the same groups: Obelisk Sky, a village on a floating island, in the browser. 55-second walkthrough:
How it maps to Nostr:
Every NIP-29 group on the relay is a house; the busier the channel, the bigger the house.
When someone posts in a group, their character walks to that house. Reply to someone and you walk over to them.
Your kind 0 picture floats over your head. Your look (body, hair, clothes, hat, pet) is a replaceable kind 30078 event.
Live movement is ephemeral events, so you see other people walking around in real time.
Zaps go through NWC or WebLN and fly from sender to recipient as coins.
It works with any NIP-29 relay, not only ours.
Try it:
(no signup: log in with your key or a signer, or walk around as a guest)
The chat app:
Code:
(the apps and the relay are AGPL-3.0)
The profile pictures in the video belong to real Obelisk users; the scenes were staged for the camera.
I'd love feedback, especially from people running NIP-29 relays: what would make you bring your group here?
