Why Our World Is Powered By Holochain
Greetings Friends,
Apologies for the long radio silence, we have been busy working hard behind the scenes networking and building deeper ties, integration & syngerisation with our partners/allies with S7 Foundation, Mindlife, Holochain, etc.
We have also been doing further deep brainstorming and design sessions for Our Word. We have also continued to work on the OASIS Architecture designs, diagrams and whitepaper. We have also started designing and developing the actual OASIS API/Architecture itself which will fully integrate with Holochain, which is the purpose of this post.
So yes very exciting times indeed with a LOT happening! :) So as you can imagine, we have not had a lot of time to keep you all updated on our progress...
Holochain is what we envisioned the tech that Our World/The OASIS would be built on top off. Which is why when we saw this and also the OASIS featured in Ready Player One where the computing power was decentraised and distributed we could see how both of these matched our vision perfectly. Just like in the Ready Player One OASIS Holochain allows nodes (devices in people's homes) to share processing power, memory, network and other resources with other nodes. We were so happy that Holochain have helped save us a LOT of time and energy in that they are already building the storage and network stack we were panning on building for Our World/OASIS. So as you can see it is a match made in heaven... :)
We are very impressed with what these guys are doing and we look forward to forging deeper ties with them, we already have ties with key inside people, with who we are currently having talks with.
They are currently working on relatively simple HTML apps, but we have much BIGGER ambitous plans for it. We will help turbo charge their ecosystem they are trying to build since as mentioned on our site Our World is much more than just a game, it is a nextgen platform, ecosystem & operating system for the new earth we are building. This is why satellite apps/games can plug into Our Word/OASIS using the OASIS API. These apps/games can be built using Holochain, Blockchain or any other tech, our OASIS system will act as the bridge allowing them all to inter-connect but our main focus is Holochain since we KNOW this is the future, we have seen it... ;-)
We believe Blockchain may just be a bubble and when it bursts everyone will come over to Holochain, which we hope we will be ready for by then...
Holochain has been in the works for a very long time, long before Blockchain came out so no it is not yet another blockchain tech. It is built on top of the wisdom of nature, what else is better to base your design on than something that has been evolving for billions of years? Holochain is part of something even bigger they have been working on called CEPTR.
We saw in a recent blog that the community was talking about a Fortnite Clone. It also talks about helping the world, and also doing a UI similar to Pokemon Go. Well that is what we have been working on for 7 years now and back in Feb we decided we would build it on top of Holochain, since we wanted it to be fully decentralised and distributed as well as be able to share resources (CPU, Network, Memory, Bandwith, etc) with other nodes so naturally Holochain ticked all the boxes! :)
But we really need your help to raise awareness of this CRITICAL project for the future of humanity and this beautiful planet. Instead of being yet another mindless violent game, which is part of the problem rather than the solution,
Our World teaches people how to live in harmony with each other and the planet. It teaches people, especially kids the right life lessons to help co-create a better world for all of us. It does this using the latest cutting edge tech such as VR, AR, real-time emotional feedback, voice recognition, gesture recognition, facial tracking, etc.. We are looking for developers and anyone else who would love to get involved in this Open Source project.
We are currently building the prototype and have been designing and planning for this game for 7 years now. So now is the time to get on board. As part of this dev we are developing a HDK for .NET and for Unity, which will help turbo charge Holochain! We will gift these forward to the amazing Holochain community. We hope in return we will get the help we need to help turbo charge this project, thank you, we look forward to hearing from you soon! :)
As always we would be very grateful for any donations to our crowd funding pages as well as anyone who wants to join our expanding team...

The software industry has the power to transform lives through engaging people with innovative products that help them to grow and develop. Recent popular examples include health apps, mindfulness apps and mind training games.
We wish to take this to the next level and help make the world a better place by using technology for good, by bringing people together and to support, guide and educate everyone on how we can all live happier, fulfilling lives and at the same time how we can help save our planet.
We will do this by creating a suite of next gen apps & games using the latest cutting edge technology such as Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Real-time emotional feedback, face/voice recognition, motion detection and so much more.
Our World is an exciting immersive next generation 3D Virtual Reality educational game/platform/social network/ecosystem teaching people on how to look after themselves, each other and the planet using the latest cutting edge technology. It teaches people the importance of real-life face to face connections with human beings and encourages them to get out into nature using Augmented Reality similar to Pokémon Go but on a much more evolved scale. This is our flagship product and is our top priority due to the massive positive impact it will make upon the world...
Our World is more than just a game or platform, it is an entirely new ecosystem/asset store/internet, it is the future way we will be interacting with each other and the world through the use of technology. Smaller apps/game will plug into it and share your central profile/avatar where you gain karma for doing good deeds such as helping your local communities, etc and lose karma for being selfish and not helping others since it mirrors the real world where you have free will. There is nothing else out there like this, nothing even comes close, this will change everything... There is a reason we are called NextGen Software! ;-)
Our World has now merged with our NextGen Social Network project, which was always planned to be the prequel to Our World, so it made sense to simply merge them together.
Our World implements the Synergy Engine helping to solve the worlds problems by matching solutions to problems. It also teaches the co-creation wheel and a new holistic approach to living and technology to help co-create a better world.
Our World is built on top of the de-centralised, distributed nextgen internet known as Holochain. Our World will be the first AAA MMO game and 2D/3D Social Network to run on HoloChain and the Blockchain (primarily the holochain, blockchain is just for DApp compatibility). It will also be the first to integrate a social network with a MMO game/platform as well as all of these technologies and devices together. As with the rest of the game, it will be leading the way in what can be done with this NextGen Technology for the benefit and upliftment of humanity.
We will soon be launching our ICO to sell our OASIS Coin, more news on this soon...
In-Game Desktop/Console Version
The smartphone version will be a geolocation game featuring Augmented Reality similar to Pokemon Go but on a much more evolved scale (yes we were designing this long before Pokemon Go came out!).
The console/desktop version will be similar to a Sandbox and MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) but will be nothing like any other games such as World Of WarCraft & MineCraft. It will in fact define its own genre setting the new bar for others to follow, this truly has never been done before and will take the world by storm! The one thing it will share with them is that it will be a massive open world that millions and millions of players can explore and build together...
You can run around an open world completing quests in whatever order you choose but it will also contain an engrossing storyline, which will change depending on what choices both you and the collective take as a whole. The story is about the final epic battle for Earth between the forces of darkness and the light that has been raging across Galaxies & Universes for eons. You will fight demons, zombies, monsters, killer robots controlled by a dark evil AI and more. The main difference to other games is that you will not fight fellow humans (although the dark AI is trying to manipulate mankind in to doing just that), instead you will unite together against the new common enemy that is threatening the very existence of mankind and the planet. You will be free to build your own homes, communities, base defences, vehicles & ships (or purchase or win) either using traditional means, nextgen technology or even magic. The same goes for combat, you can choose to use pure strength, skill and melee, technology or magic. You can be whoever you want to be. You can even choose not to fight and instead focus on supporting the economy, farming, healing, R&D, construction, leadership, etc. The choice is yours...
As you proceed through the game you will discover that this dark evil AI has taken over the minds of many humans who are in positions of power & influence across the globe such as Governments, banking, corporations, educational institutions, pharmaceutical & the military and is using them as puppets for its evil plans for world domination. This secret society is known as The Dark Order. The dark AI (also known as The Beast) is manipulating humanity to create technology and robotic bodies for it to control to form its army of machines. It is also trying to get every human implanted with a chip so it can track and control them, this is known as the Mark Of The Beast. It is also trying to manipulate them to open a portal to other dimensions to bring forth its dark army in the final phase of its plan. It plans to exterminate 90% of the population and enslave the rest. Your mission along with the rest of mankind is to stop this before it is too late...
The game will also be teaching people especially kids important vital life lessons and show how they can then implement them in the real world. Part of the way this will be done is by merging the real world with Our World using the latest cutting edge technology such as Augmented Reality.
In-Game Smartphone Version
Objects created (vehicles, building, etc) can be shared and even sold on the OASIS Asset Store. Objects created on other popular platforms such as Google Blocks and Microsoft's 3D Creator can also be imported and used in Our World.
As well as smaller apps/games being allowed to plug into Our World either sharing just the central avatar/profile (data) or full UI integration, content creators/businesses can also create shops (where people can purchase real items in VR that are then delivered to your door so in effect is virtual e-commerce), buildings or even entire zones/lands/worlds. They can rent virtual spaces within the game. Please contact us on ourworld@nextgensoftware.co.uk if you wish to receive special early adopter discounts...
Businesses can also sponsor or advertise in the game but unlike traditional models, money does not buy you the best spots, the companies collective karma does. The greener & the more they do good for the world including giving to charities, looking after their employees, the environment, etc the more karma they get. Advertising spots will be limited since we do not wish to bombard users with adverts so this will be an incentive for companies worldwide to improve and start focusing on what is important, and that's people and the environment, not money. As may be clear by now, the focus and goals of Our World is to create a better world, not to make as much money as possible. But we of course will still make more than enough (billions) to continue to expand & grow, the rest will go to good causes and charities such as our sister company Yoga4Autism.
Our World is only the beginning... once we have learnt to resolve our problems and live in peace and harmony with each other and the planet then we will be ready to reach out and explore other worlds within our Universe and beyond...
We cannot try to run from our problems and escape to other worlds virtual or real), we need to stay and heal Our World first...
Once we have done that then we can transform Our World into the OASIS, a paradise on Earth...
Our World is just the first world of an infinite number of worlds, stars, systems, galaxies & universes to explore...
This multiverse is called The OASIS, which can only be reached through the OASIS we are co-creating on Our World.
The OASIS will only be open to us once we have resolved our issues here, humanity must prove they are worthy to join the Galactic Societies waiting for us out there... How can we meet, interact and get on with other races out there when we cannot even get on with each other here?
It is time to stop running from our problems and face them united together...
The game will also be teaching people especially kids important vital life lessons and show how they can then implement them in the real world. Part of the way this will be done is by merging the real world with Our World using the latest cutting edge technology such as Augmented Reality.
Our World reminds people how powerful they are and empowers them to be the person they have always wanted to be, to live their life to their FULL potential without any limitations. Everyone has a gift for the world and with Our World we can help them find it. We want to empower people to take responsibility for our beautiful planet, which is currently in crisis and so needs EVERYONE to help make a difference. The entire world is the Our World team, we want everyone to get involved so they can feel they are part of something greater than themselves and at the same time ensure there is a future for our kids and grandkids.
People learn at a young age how to act and behave and this shapes the future generations and the world they will create. Due to the majority of games these days involving violence, sex, gambling, drugs & crime, this is conditioning the youth of today to the sort of world they will create tomorrow.
With the advent of Virtual Reality now making these violent games even more immersive and realistic where the boundaries between games and reality is shrinking by the day, it is imperative we take some social and moral responsibility and start using technology to help create a better world by improving people's life's as well as respecting the environment and planet that sustains us.
Kids today are playing very violent games such as Call Of Duty which are used as brainwashing techniques to desensitise us to violence and also act as a training and recruitment tool for the military (which they have now admitted). The same goes for flight simulators being used to train and recruit drone pilots.
We hope you will agree this is totally unacceptable and is part of why there is so much war, violence, etc in today’s world. It is time we start using technology to teach people the correct life lessons. Our World acts as a simulation for the real world and teaches them how to create a better world in the simulation and then shows how they can then implement these important lessons in real life.

Gambling is being forced onto kids more and more in the form of loot boxes where real money is asked for to receive a random prize and now its got so bad that money is actually needed to progress within the game. Everything seems to be geared around how much people can be exploited and how much money can be sucked out of them, this is even more wrong for kids.
Read more on our previous post about this below:
We wish to bring people together, build online communities, encourage people to reach out and help strangers for the greater good of all. To encourage people to come and work together and to show how everyone benefits if they put their differences aside and start all rowing together. It will model the real world and also act as a simulation and training environment for how to make the real world a better place.
We wish to reach the kids who are glued to their phones and consoles and never go outside, this game will encourage them to get out into parks and interact with people in fun creative ways face to face instead of through their phones.
We actually started researching, planning & designing this over six years (we have also been busy networking, building partnerships, etc) ago but we could not yet afford the large amount of money it would take to create this. On top of this, the technology did not yet exist to create the vision, but this is now changing. When Pokémon Go was released featuring more primitive versions of some of the technology featured in Our World, we realised we really need to get this game into production.
This was further amplified when our founder finished reading the amazing novel Ready Player One, which featured the OASIS VR Platform, which is the closest thing we have found to date to Our World except Our World is the evolved benevolent sister of the OASIS. The OASIS is only about 40% of what Our World is to give you an idea of the sheer size and magnitude of this project! It is aimed at saving the world rather than leading to its destruction due to the neglect it faced when everyone escaped into the OASIS. Ready Player One has proven so popular that Spielberg & Warner Brothers have now released the blockbuster film, which we hope will help promote Our World further. It is about someone with Autism who creates a revolutionary 3D VR Platform which takes the world by storm because it is so far ahead of everything else out there. The creator of the 3D VR platform known as the OASIS grew up in the 80's, is obsessed with the 80's and had guitar lessons as a kid, which also describes our founder David Ellams.

With over 5628 likes on our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/ourworldthegame), which is growing daily, this very important project is being very well received and we constantly receive glowing feedback of how much of a wonderful good idea this is, one that is needed more than ever in today’s world!
We are currently building the smartphone prototype and hope to have this done by 2019 Q4. We are also looking for any other developers, designers, 3D modellers and anyone else who wish to get involved so please get in touch if this is YOU...
We have just partnered with Be Earth, which is a UN IGO (United Nations Intergovernmental Organisation).

Our World is Buckminster Fuller's World Peace Game, please read more here:
An exert from the above article states:
“VR (virtual reality) and AR (augmented reality) are exciting – Google Glass coming and going, Facebook’s $2 billion for Oculus, Google’s $542 million into Magic Leap, not to mention Microsoft’s delightful HoloLens. There are amazing early stage platforms and apps, but VR/AR in 2015 feels a bit like the smartphone market before the iPhone. We’re waiting for someone to say “One more thing…” in a way that has everyone thinking “so that’s where the market’s going!”
Well, we are what everyone has been waiting for, to take this technology to the next level, hence our name!
In-Game Desktop/Console Version
Pokémon Go has already started to lose users as we predicted due to not being nowhere near immersive enough so to keep users engaged in the game. Our World is set to be one of the most immersive games ever made so it will not suffer from this problem.
We will also be building NextGen Hardware that not only doesn't harm you like exiting devices do, they will actually heal/energise you and will never need charging! Read more below:
According to the latest research the VR/AR Market is set for VERY explosive growth with estimates of $674bn by 2025. The mobile app industry has been growing exponentially for a number of years now and is set to continue to accelerate. The mobile app market was valued last year at over 27 billion dollars and is set to reach 77 billion this year.
So make sure you get in on the ground floor of the next Apple, which will be the GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY of a lifetime!

It only seems to be a week or two before another terrorist attack or mass shooting or disaster after disaster. How much more suffering does there have to be before the people unite together to say enough is enough?
We need your investment so we can build a 2nd more advanced prototype to demo to interested parties. We can then get more investment to get the first version of this game released. This game will have continuous development with frequent upgrades and add-ons. It is so vast, that the development roadmap is never ending.
So please get in touch and get involved.

We are looking for people in ALL departments...
We want to hear your ideas and what you think should be in the game... As we said the whole world is the Our World team.
Please get involved on our forum here:
Other ways you can help is to donate something to our Crowd Funding page below.
We currently have a funding page here: https://www.gofundme.com/ourworldthegame
We would really appreciate if you could donate anything you can afford, even if it's just a pound, if everyone did that then we would be able to massively accelerate this very urgent and important project for a world in need right now. I think everyone can justify a pound if it meant saving the world don't you think?
It's even better to spend a pound on this project rather than buying a lottery ticket since you have more chance of being hit by a car than winning the jackpot, then even by some fluke you did win, there is no point having millions if there is no world left to enjoy it on.
Think about it...
Also, please make sure you like our FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/OurWorldTheGame
We need to build our online community to as big as possible before we launch new crowd funding campaigns on Kick Starter and start approaching investors...
So please join us and help spread awareness of Our World so together we can create a better world...
We are also really in need of funding or investors so if you know of any please send them our way! :) It would be really appreciated.
So what will be your legacy?
Do you want to be in on the ground floor of the upcoming platform that will take the world by storm?
The platform that is going to win many rewards for the groundbreaking work it will do. Do you want to be a hero of your own life story?
Want to tell your kids and grandkids that you helped make it happen and go down in history as a hero?
What kind of world do you want to leave to the next generation?
Want to be part of something greater than yourself?
How can you do your part to create a better world?
This is HOW you do your part...
Be the change you wish to see in the world...
TOGETHER WE CAN CREATE A BETTER WORLD
With love, light & hope,
The Our World Team.
