Hi everyone! Back when I first started using Gather Town, I thought it was just another virtual meeting space. Little did I know, there’s a whole world of fun interactions waiting to be discovered! Today, I want to share with you how I’ve transformed my Gather Town experience from ordinary to extraordinary by learning to dance, throw confetti, and give high fives. Trust me, once you unlock these hidden gems, your virtual meetings will never be the same.

Dance

The first time I discovered the dance feature in Gather Town, I was hooked. It’s so much fun to have a little dance break in the middle of a meeting. All you have to do is press ‘Z’ on your keyboard, and your avatar will start dance. It’s a simple command, but it instantly adds a playful vibe to any gathering. Now, whenever I host a meeting, I always start with a quick dance session. It’s a great way to get everyone in a good mood. Check this out!

Throwing Confetti

Nothing says “celebration” quite like confetti! Whether you’ve just wrapped up a big project or you’re just happy it’s Friday, throwing confetti in Gather Town is a fun way to mark the moment. To throw confetti, just press ‘F’ on your keyboard, and watch as colorful confetti rains down around your avatar. I’ve started using this feature to celebrate even the smallest wins during meetings, and it never fails to bring a smile to everyone’s face. It’s a small gesture, but it goes a long way in creating a joyful atmosphere. Check this out!

High Five

The high five is another fun interaction that I love using in Gather Town. It’s perfect for those moments when you want to congratulate someone or just share a moment with your besties. If two people are walking toward each other and both use the wave emote, you’ll high-five! By default, the wave emote is in the first spot in the Emote Bar, so you can just press ‘1’ to use it. I’ve found that giving high fives during meetings makes our virtual space feel a bit more like a real-world office. Check this out!

You might be wondering why I’m so excited about these simple interactions. The truth is, in a world where virtual meetings can often feel impersonal, these small gestures make a big difference. They add a layer of fun that keeps people engaged and makes meetings more enjoyable. Plus, it’s a great way to show off a little personality in a space that can sometimes feel a bit too formal.

So, if you’re looking to spice up your Gather Town experience, I highly recommend trying out the dance, confetti, and high five features. They’re easy to use, and they make a big impact. Who knew that a few simple commands could unlock so much hidden fun?

Let’s keep the party going! See you in Gather Town!
