YouTuber PrestonPlayz is releasing his very own video game \u2013 and it\u2019s NFT-free Dot Big Bang\/PrestonPlayzDexerto sat down with PrestonPlayz and dot big bang\u2019s CEO to find out what drew the popular YouTuber to the game creation tool. Preston Blaine Arsement, more commonly known as PrestonPlayz, has built a YouTube empire over more than a decade, and his main channel now sits at a staggering 19.7 million subscribers. With a focus on family-friendly content that spans Minecraft, Fortnite, and IRL videos, going from strength to strength, it seems like Arsement never stops \u2013 and recently invested in a new game creation tool: dot big bang. \u201cI absolutely love to create stories for my viewers and fans,\u201d he tells Dexerto. \u201cIt is such a motivating factor to explore the imagination of our generation and such a blessing. Dot big bang allows us to do that and reach even more people.\u201d \u201cWhen I was first sent the game, I was amazed with how quick I got to play. You really click a link and can jump into such an immersive world. It runs smooth, looks great, and the team behind it knows what they are doing.\u201d That link-based setup is one of the things that makes dot big bang so special, and developer ControlZee\u2019s CEO and co-founder Robert Anderberg thinks it\u2019ll open up games to much broader audiences. \u201cOn the technical side, being a browser-based platform means people can join a multiplayer game with a single click, without installing anything, on any laptop, tablet, or phone. Anything with a browser can run DBB, which seems pretty simple, but it\u2019s actually a really significant advancement in gaming.\u201d \u201cStreamers, like Preston, can make custom games, post a link in the chat, and have thousands of their fans playing beside them instantly \u2013 even if they\u2019re on a hand-me-down potato Android phone. No powerful PC or online-play subscription is required. No lobbies, no queues or connection problems either.\u201d With the rise of Roblox and Minecraft, though, there are plenty of construction sets with which to make games. As it turns out, it\u2019s dot big bang\u2019s team and their work on Preston\u2019s own \u201cWould You Rather\u201d game that showed off the suite\u2019s potential to the popular streamer. \u201cI have had the pleasure of using a lot of game creation tools, but DBB really has such a great team behind it. We have had so much fun working together on our Would You Rather game and I can\u2019t wait to create even more exciting experiences in the future.\u201d Anderberg also notes that dot big bang could represent the next step in browser capabilities. \u201cFor creators, it\u2019s a fully-featured game development engine with 3D modeling, world-building, scripting, and more. For players, it\u2019s a free gaming platform that runs anywhere with a connection to the internet (even without WiFi), on pretty much any device. An average game on DBB including all resources, the engine, and creation tools is about 1\/4 the size of the average app!\u201d he tells us. With so much talk about the Metaverse, is there a danger that dot big bang could begin to implement play-to-earn or blockchain mechanics? \u201cOur community is a big component of dot big bang. The platform has a player-first approach that focuses on what\u2019s fun and good for players above all else, meaning, among other things, that it\u2019s ad-free, crypto-free, and NFT-free,\u201d Anderberg tells us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
