MAGNI PARK

Factsheet

Description

MAGNI PARK is a park builder made of chunky plastic bricks, laid out on a table in a real room. You build it from above like the toy set it is, with track, stations, gardens and a monorail that circles the whole thing, and then you drop in at two and a half centimetres tall and walk the paths you drew.

Queue at your own rides. Ride them from the seat. Play the carnival stalls with your hands. Walk off the edge of the table and fall to the carpet among the furniture. Open your park and somebody can walk in and do all of it with you, in the same train, while you are both two and a half centimetres tall.

Features

• A park that is an object. The whole thing sits on a table you can move between a kid's bedroom, a dining room, a poolside and a garage.
• Get inside it. First or third person, any time, no loading.
• Admission is a real decision. The price runs against a demand curve, and the right answer moves as the park grows. You can watch the queue thin out when you overcharge.
• Somebody else can come and walk round it. Open your park, send a link or let anybody drop in, and up to eight people stand in it together at two and a half centimetres tall. You can sit in the same coaster train and go round it at the same time. No account, no login, nothing to install.
• Dark rides you actually ride through. Eight themed rides with four scenes each, lit and animated, seen from the seat.
• The park has a day. A heatwave, a school trip, a film crew, a night market. Everybody in the world gets the same one, it changes what the park is good at rather than handing out coins, and it never makes the park worse.
• Nobody leaves a ride, they leave through the shop. Gift shops, photo booths and food carts bolt onto ride exits and take a cut of that ride's spending.
• Lands. Cluster plots by theme and they fuse into named areas with their own bonuses.
• Sixty ranks, rotating contracts and a park you can pack back into its box to start again with a permanent bonus.
• Photographed like a model. Tilt-shift, a narrow band in focus and everything else soft, which is the effect that makes real things look miniature, used on something that already is.

What makes it unusual

There are no asset files

Every mesh, texture, icon and sound in MAGNI PARK is generated when the game runs. There is not a single image in the build. That is why the whole game is about six hundred kilobytes over the wire and starts instantly in a browser tab.

The balance is measured, not guessed

three.js core is pure mathematics, so the entire park, its crowd and its economy run headless in Node with no GPU. Every balance number in the game was measured by simulation rather than estimated: rides per visit, the split between gate, ride and shop income, and the best ticket price at five different park sizes.

Video & images

Five press stills at 1920×1080 are in press/store/, and twelve finished vertical videos (1080×1920, H.264, 20 to 34 s, no audio so you can lay your own over them) are in promo/. All of it is rendered straight out of the running game, so any of it can be remade after an update.

Permission is granted to use any of it, including in monetised videos. No request needed.
