At the time CyberTown was mainly a portal site with categories of links, however Colon圜ity was able to use the ideas from the categories to make 3D worlds and expand Cybertown. Midway through 1999, Colon圜ity merged with Cybertown which dramatically increased the users to a few thousand. Those that were employed were most likely part of the development team or were the first people to arrive. These VRML files became shared virtual worlds using Blaxxun's award-winning multi-user server technology, enabling people from all over the world to meet and interact in rich-media environments in real-time on the Web.īefore the merge of Colon圜ity and Cybertown, Colon圜ity had a massive unemployment problem which neared 90% of users unemployed, making the main purpose people came to Colon圜ity was to interact with the other users. Colony City made use of the VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language), a standard for displaying 3D content, including virtual worlds and avatars, on the Web. HistoryĬolony City was started in 1997 as a showcase project of Blaxxun interactive of Munich, Germany. All its 3D objects were created by its citizens. Citizens are allowed and encouraged to create 3D objects for use in Cybertown. It uses The Blaxxun Community Platform coupled with the Blaxxun Contact VRML Viewer control, to interact in 3D worlds to make it more complete and capable of having a society structure by adding social interaction between users.
