Description
Welcome to Borderworlds! At Gearbox we enjoy creating fictional worlds and stories for everyone to enjoy. This expirimental app provides you the opportunity to do the same. Explore others' worlds, create your own and grow a universe through your own contributions. Write what you feel, write what you imagine - write whatever you like! Enjoy yourself!
Just to get you in the mood, here’s an excerpt from one user’s fiction for the Blavus system:
--- Excerpt begins --- The Blavus system is unique in that it atmosphere and flora are so specific, only one kind of creature has evolved to survive in its environment.
His name is Clark Nelson.
There are three million people on Blavus, and every single one of them is Clark Nelson. The Clark Nelsons are all exactly 5’9”; they all have short, brown hair which they always part to the left; they are Caucasian, slightly overweight, and they all asexually reproduce when they turn thirty, at which point they die. --- Excerpt ends ---
Join us in our expiriment with Borderworlds. We've seeded the world with some fiction that we like and maybe you will, too. Maybe you'll find the Blavus system and find out what happens to Clark Nelson.

Love it. Very cool idea, love it. A cool idea though: make it so you can design the planets in the galaxy, as in color, size, clouds and so on. Also; a desperate story per planet in your galaxy, that way you could write a series of stories to deepen immersion. Oh and I have an annoying glitch when naming a galaxy, it duplicates what I type several times.. Samsung galaxy exhibit 4g w/ slim ROM.. Would love to see the above features implemented.

I think this is an awesome app and may even allow fans to help gearbox make the borderlands unevers larger with the help of fans. And add some cool lore. And as a huge fan of the series, I see a lot of possibility to even add a valt hunter from the borderlands story. to the world and make a amazing story. That if good enuff, I can gearbox putting some worlds in the next game.

"Unable to communicate with server. Please check your wireless/wifi

★★☆☆☆
This is an amazing app. I've had it before and it was great. But I downloaded it recently and I can't get past the legal stuff, because it kicks me out before I can click accept. I would be really greatful if this gets fixed. So please, fix it.
★★☆☆☆
One reason: Kicks me off the app every time I get on, will mot even let me
click on the legal stuff!!
★★☆☆☆
I love the idea of this app/game, but there's that error everyone is talking about with the legal stuff and "connection" error. I and everyone else would love this app/game if the errors were fixed and would function as intended, but until that nobody can really give a better rating, hopefully these errors will be fixed soon!
