Joining the community

Where to find us and who's there.

Where does the Endless community live?

Our community lives on Discord as well as in the Endless platform.

How do I join Discord?

You can join our Discord here: discord.com/invite/joinendless

Who's in the community?

Our community is learners from programs all over the world, professional mentors, program facilitators, Threadbare devs, and other Endless team members.


Participating

How to get involved once you're in.

What's appropriate to share or discuss?

The community is a place to showcase what you're working on, get help from peers and professionals, playtest, share cool articles you find, talk about your favorite games, and more.

How do I introduce myself or get started?

Join via the Discord link and say hi in the introductions channel.

Can I get help with my project here?

Yes, absolutely! You can share links to your projects both on the platform and/or on Discord asking for help, whether that be specific questions about coding, art, etc. or simply looking for feedback or playtesting.


Peer feedback

Giving and getting feedback on your work.

How does peer feedback work?

Peer feedback is just what it sounds like! Sharing your project, level, or game in order to hear from others (inside your program or beyond) about what they like about it and where you could improve.

How do I give good feedback?

Good feedback is specific, kind, and actionable. Point to what's working ("the way the puzzle escalates feels really satisfying"), name what's confusing or feels off ("I got stuck at the door and wasn't sure why"), and suggest what could make it stronger. Lead with curiosity rather than critique, and remember the goal is to help the creator make their work better, not to prove what you'd do differently.

How do I share my game for feedback?

Within your program on the platform, click on the Games tab and then the Create your game button. You can create your game page here and share your repository as well as your playable link for playtesting.


Community events

Recurring gatherings where the community comes together.

What is Loom Lounge?

Loom Lounge is our weekly live stream, a casual conversation about game making. It's for everyone: learners who are curious, educators who want inspiration, mentors who want to stay connected, and game makers of all stripes.

When does Loom Lounge happen?

Thursdays at 11:30am ET, live on the Endless Access YouTube channel.

Can I watch past episodes?

Yes! You can catch up on previous episodes anytime on the Loom Lounge playlist on YouTube.

What are the community guidelines?

Welcome to Threadbare, an open-source game where imagination, storytelling, and game development come together.
