What you’ll need:
- A computer or a tablet – You’ll need a Windows or Mac desktop or laptop computer equipped with a camera, or a Android Tablet or Ipad.
- For the best experience on Android tablets please use “desktop mode” in Chrome.
- A supported web browser – Topia works best on Google Chrome, Edge, and Brave on desktop and laptop computers. For best results we recommend using one of these three browsers.
- Headphones/ear buds – There is ambient sound in Topia which is personal to you. Headphones ensure a great experience. Without headphones, higher volume can result in feedback for other guests or mixed sounds which isn’t fun for anyone.
How to join:
- On December 19 at 5pm PT | 8pm ET, click on this link to join: https://topia.io/save-your-skin-foundation. Don’t bother trying to go on beforehand as it will not be available.
- When you first go in, you will be asked to choose a display name.
- Your browser will ask for permission to use your camera and audio. If you have Zoom/Teams/Skype open you won’t be able to do this, so please make sure they’re closed first.
What to do once you’re in:
- You can move around the space using either mouse clicks or your arrow cursor buttons.
- You hear and see people better the closer you are to their little “Topi,” or person.
- If you walk away from people you hear and see them less. People “fade out” as they get farther away.
- As you explore, notice when your cursor turns into a pointer. This indicates that the object your mouse is on has a function. Click to interact with the object.
