The People's Tree project ↗ explored community building within networked games, enabling players to design items, append messages, and place them in a communal space. In its fourth iteration, we introduced several enhancements, including data-transfer optimizations and new 'trace' tracking and visualization features. These allow players to see where others have explored within the game, while also offering more comprehensive analytic logs for post-experiment analysis. Additionally, we developed a simple web application for moderation tasks, streamlining the process by moving it outside the Unity project.
