Epic Games is Building the Metaverse, with LEGO bricks: 8 Bits (04.08.22)

Do people remember LEGO Backlot? It was this really fun pseudo-sandbox adventure game hosted on the LEGO website on the earlier days of the internet. You were like a production assistant at the LEGO Studios sets making movies. It was a whole 3D adventure game all built in flash. Super fun. Go play it somewhere if you can. It probably isn't near as good as I remember it being, but still a worthwhile thing to note from the early internet.
Oh yeah, and news.
