The ODK is the building block for Otherside
The Otherside is a gamified, interoperable metaverse under development by Yuga Labs. Think of the Otherside as web3-enabled virtual worlds where the players own the world, your NFTs can become playable characters, and thousands can play together in real time using Improbable's MSquared platform.The Otherside Development Kit (ODK) is the set of tools that allows you to create content, environments, experiences and games on the Otherside.
Project Dragon was built using the ODK
Project Dragon is a massive multiplayer, conquest-style team shooter that will support 3,000 players at once. Project Dragon was built using the ODK and showcases the ODK's powerful game building capabilities.

Hit the ground running with the ODK
Unlike other web3 metaverses, anyone with Unreal experience can start building on the Otherside with minimal ramp up time.The ODK world builder is a modified version of Unreal 5.3.0 optimized for MSquared's mass concurrency platform. This creates certain guardrails such as only having the ability to change blueprints, materials, meshes and other binary data. Details on the differences between ODK and Unreal can be found here.
