Hey everyone! I'm new around here. I discovered VP recently out of the blue and have been busy learning the ropes!

I'm curious to hear from y'all: what brought you to VP? What do you enjoy/dislike about it? How would you compare it to other similar games?

heyo welcome!

i came from a similar site when it closed down and stuck around, i just enjoy collecting little pixel items
there's not a lot of active users so it's very casual and there's a lot of in-jokes so dw if interacting with ppl is weird
bigger dressup forum platforms are too hostile for me but obviously vp's downside is the horrible web design lol

Tbh im curious as well i joined in 2016 on my birthday i think my friend told me about it. I always liked dress up games and it was a lot more accessible and normal back then. I made many breaks but came back around 2 years ago and stuck to it until now i just love chatting with ppl in smaller communities

Seems like a tight community!

The site's design is quite dated lol. Has it ever been through a redesign?

Glad to share the curiosity!

How do you mean by more accessible and normal? (I don't know much about what it was like back then)

I love the lack of FOMO here. It's nice and cosy, and the small community is nice too.

Sometimes it feels dead here, but I hope we can do stuff about it

still the same it was 13 years ago, it's an acquired taste
if we're lucky we might get a new background every once in a while

i feel like most of the active users came here ten-ish years ago (when another site originally closed) and have been here ever since. the site is super outdated in everything but we have pretty pixel clothes so i'm happy. i think our rules are lax in comparison to competitor sites - vp is aimed at young adults while many others wanna remain child friendly so we can be a bit Edgier here

the big unfortunate issue the site has is money. there's been a streak when the server costs are barely covered by the money the site makes, which means the owner has no funds to revamp the site significantly or compensate the designers in a way other sites do - which is bad since a dressup game cannot exist without clothes

i'm kinda curious though - how did you find vp?

Back then dress up games were more frequently played on websites bcs of flash but once it shutdown many people also stopped developing web games and moved on to apps. Idk but i feel like the website dress up game formula  only works well for websites

Oh, oof... although, it does seem to be a recurring aesthetic™ amongst avatar maker sites.

Ooo yes, the Flash era! I get what you mean. There definitely has been a shift from web games to mobile games, for better or worse.

That's really cool to hear (minus the other site dying lol)! Purely out of curiosity, what kind of work do you do being in a team? Do you also get extra benefits or perks?

as a designer i get to create items that the people can wear. i get payed a small amount for every set that is being brought into the game, we also are able to make the codes for the players to claim.
and for et i was hired as designer so i supply them with sets from time to time. benefits not so much but it fun being in a team and working together we are trying to get et back up again but the site is kinda dead atm so that unfortunate
