Why a smaller UGC platform can last when a large one did not
Rec Room needed a VR-market outcome that did not arrive. A site that only has to pay for pages, files, and a modest share can choose to stay small.
Sustainability at a fraction of the scale is the pitch. It is also the constraint: do not expect a billion-user roadmap.
Cost line
Hosting metadata is cheap. Hosting a live social VR stack for millions is not. We are not pretending to restart that stack.
Creator line
If creators get paid and can export, they can leave. That is the opposite of the lock-in that looks good on a dashboard and dies in public.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the new Rec Room?
No. It is an independent place for creators who lost work.
What if you shut down too?
Export. That is the rule we are willing to be tested on.
