Bondee is a messenger application created by Singapore's Metadream. It was launched in November, and interest in metaverse keywords was declining, but suddenly emerged as a major trend from February.
You can decorate your space like a sleek figure-style avatar and Cyworld's mini homepage. You can send and receive messages like KakaoTalk, and you can write and share like Twitter.
It is also interesting to note that people in their 30s create avatars similar to themselves, and people in their 20s create avatars completely different from themselves.
In the metaverse, avatars are used like business cards. The graphic quality of the figure-shaped avatar is appropriate. It is attractive to simply express a person with Deformer, a technique that simply expresses an object, and to express individuality with the clothes and accessories worn.
Avatar cards packaged like real figures are cute. Avatar is combined with a physical metaphor to convey a more complex feeling. You can create avatar cards, profile pictures, and wallpapers to use in various places.
Bondi can only have up to 50 friends per person. I don't share my daily life even to people I'm not close to, and there are no influencers or ads. On the main screen, you can see what your other friends are doing right now. It is an experience that best expresses the motto of Chinchindeul's Metaverse Azitra.
You can meet strangers with the floating function. If you write a message on a current bottle and throw it into the open sea, you will receive a reply. Conversely, you can pick up and reply to messages from other users. With the current bottle, only the avatar profile and the date the message was written are known. There is also an exploration element where you can get items randomly.
It is also interesting to note that people in their 30s create avatars similar to themselves, and people in their 20s create avatars completely different from themselves. It's surprising that the sensibility of Cyworld, which was pushed by Facebook, is reviving. As expected, I think that what people have already desired enough to invest their time in is not going to change over time.
