How’s this for a unique concoction? A video game that is playable within a Discord chat server, is being built using generative AI tools, and even taps into Solana NFTs and tokens for player-owned assets and rewards.

What it adds up to is Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos, a game that’s being built using both AI and blockchain to deliver engaging, persistent experiences within the familiar, interactive chat window of a Discord server. Decrypt saw the game in action at the recent Solana PlayGG event in San Diego.

“Discord has a few advantages for building social games,” Creative Director Alex Finden told Decrypt. “One of those is that all of the game activities happen in this interactive environment that people are already very comfortable with,” he added, further explaining that the platform makes it easy for players to spectate and challenge each other.

Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos is a text and turn-based role-playing game (RPG), which holds its battles in a fantasy world via the game’s official Discord server. It also uses the Solana blockchain for its NFT-based items, including in-game characters.

“Nearly every in-game asset earned or purchased is optionally mintable as an NFT on Solana,” Finden said. “Any player can mint their assets from in-game menus with no blockchain knowledge or experience required,” he said, adding that a launch date for the assets has not yet been determined.

The inaugural NFT collection for the game will be called the Alchemy: Gods collection. Players can collect one of 5,000 unique Alchemy Gods, and accrue the soon-to-be-introduced Solana-based token SPIRIT through a new faction-based gameplay mode.

Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos was among five winners of the Solana Foundation’s NFT Showdown in June. At SolanaPlayGG, Finden unveiled its Land Shard NFTs.

Solana was already a popular destination for NFTs and digital collectibles. Now, the Solana Foundation and Solana Labs aim to make it the destination for gaming, thanks to initiatives like last week’s PlayGG event in San Diego and the upcoming GameShift toolkit for developers.

Discord gaming

Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos players take on the role of a Descendant as a mage, squire, cleric, or rogue, and can play against an AI-controlled opponent or join player-vs-player (PvP) battles against other users.

Gaming via Discord servers is not a totally new concept. Other text-based games on the platform include IdleRPG, PokeMeow, and the classic game of chess. However, Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos opts for a distinctive hybrid approach, looping in crypto assets while also tapping into generative AI smarts.

Discord offers several tools for developers, Finden explained, including APIs that make creating and deploying games quickly very easy. An application programming interface (API) is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other.

“We can turn around game modes and our fantasy RPG in about two weeks,” Finden said, “because of all of the tools that Discord allows us.”

Image: Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos
Finden said two types of players are most interested in Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos—the classic turn-based strategy player that wants to be competitive with the game, and the Web3 die-hard that wants to come in, have power over the world, influence the players, and see if they can capitalize on some value that the ecosystem has generated.

“We’ve designed the game modes and the tradable assets in the game in a way where the Web3 players and the Web2 players create this circular economy,” Finden said, emphasizing that no cryptocurrency needs to be spent to play on Discord.

Much of the computational work is done on a server that operates in the background, and the team leverages Discord’s scalability to circumvent any network congestion on the platform.

“The demand is minimal as the files are extremely small, especially when compared to larger 3D-model games,” Finden said. “As such, server capacity and scalability are not an issue for us.”

AI assistance

Since the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot and the generative art platform Midjourney, advances in generative AI have enabled creators to generate dialogue and images for adventure games quickly with minimal skill. Finden said AI has allowed the small team to produce a volume of content that traditionally would have taken a robust squad of artists.

“We have two options. We can either hire a full art studio, which takes a lot of time and iteration to nail our vision,” he said, “or I can just get really good at using the prompts to allow AI to create the vision that I have.”

AI has become integral to the game, Finden said. Midjourney is considered a co-creator because some of the creative ideas the AI tool spits out end up finding their way into the world that the Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos team is creating.

“We’re using Midjourney prompts to create art on demand; we also pre-create a lot of the art and layer it in based on the decisions that the player makes,” Finden said. “On the chat side, we use OpenAI to power our NPCs in a way that gives them some creativity in their character.”

‘Star Atlas’ CEO After Massive Layoffs: ‘Nothing About Our Vision Has Changed’
Alchemy: Battle for Ankhos uses AI prompts to hone the character’s behavior and ensure the story progresses in the desired direction.

“We give them some creative control,” Finden said, “so that each time a player goes into this world, they get a slightly different experience.”

Finden said that what intrigues him about the potential of AI in gaming is the idea of having a fully generative dungeon master-type entity that takes players on quests. That’s the long-term goal, but even with a tiny team, Finden believes it’s possible using this unique development model.

“I’m really excited to see what happens when we allow for that,” he said. “I think hopefully we can see that in the future. But it’s going to be an adventure to get there.”

Following up on their very successful series of Alpha playtests, Phantom Galaxies opened up their first Beta Phase a little over a month ago to a very small set of their players. Now, after a few weeks of testing, they are ready to expand this phase to include a larger playerbase, though you still need to own an NFT to participate.

Getting access to Phase of Beta 2 for Phantom Galaxies requires owning one of several NFTs. Anyone who holds a ‘Planet Genesis Mintpass’, a ‘The Hopeful’ NFT, or a ‘Zorran’s Favour’ NFT should now have access to the beta. Players can download the game and retrieve their beta codes on the Phantom Galaxies website.

Unlike the alpha, this testing phase doesn’t include any promised rewards. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if the team hands out a badge or some other sort of proof of participation item. But even without rewards, the game is actually fun to play!

What’s New in Beta 2?

This beta brings a number of new features to this space-based, mech-combat, starship-piloting, RPG. Starfighters have seen an overhaul across the board with new abilities and updated visuals. We also have a new game system around Heat management when piloting a starship. As players maneuver and fight, their ship begins to heat up. Overheat, and the ship is destroyed. Players will need to keep an eye on their Heat levels during combat missions and know when to back off and cool down before re-engaging!

This beta phase starts everyone fresh from the beginning again. And though there are some changes, it’s a familiar experience for anyone who played in the alpha test. For those new to Phantom Galaxies, the game is very user friendly. The story-based plotline walks you through learning different parts of the game through a series of quests as it builds up the danger and adds more options for the players.

And for those are looking for a social scene, it is now possible to meet up with other players on Halberd-001, the starting space station. The first multiplayer hub in the game has already seen some activity. Hopefully this feature will continue to grow into an active hangout scene for the Phantom Galaxies playerbase.

No, you’re the best!

What is Phantom Galaxies?

Phantom Galaxies is story-based, FPS, RPG set in a future of space travel and planet colonization. Players follow the storyline quests, fight pirates, and upgrade their character and starships along the way. The game features high-quality graphics and features starship piloting and fighting, as well as walkable, 3D space stations where most of the NPC interactions occur.

Players will own their own Starfighters in the form on NFTs. Other equipment and fusion NFTs will be used to upgrade the fighters.

The game will also include many other features. This includes arena PvP, PvE raids, planet ownership, player crafting, and even potential permanent loss of Starfighter NFTs!

The early version of Dimensionals will be playable in a series of weekly alpha tournaments.

Take a glimpse at Dimensionals’ early gameplay

Mino Games, a free-to-play mobile gaming studio, released the alpha version of Web3 RPG Dimensionals at the 3XP Gaming Expo.

According to the team, Dimensionals is a next-generation gaming franchise that will eventually feature the first character-driven RPG powered by AI to allow unique, unscripted character interactions and real-time, shareable mods.

The brand strives to provide more engaging and personalized experiences, such as live streaming, modding, user-generated content, guilds, and active Discord communities, that many traditional RPGs do not offer.

What is Dimensionals?

To begin, Dimensionals is a fast-paced, high-stakes, action-packed RPG where players collect an army of unique heroes to save the multiverse. Players enter the Rift to battle enemies, explore new dimensions, recruit Dimensionals, unlock new stories, team up, and compete for valuable collectibles. Designed to be live-streamed, gamers can create, play, and share their mods with other players in real time.

On top of that, players’ heroes will take on a life of their own through AI. Hero characters will have their memories, unique personalities, and unscripted dialogue that will change as players engage with them – making an entirely new way to experience RPGs.

The weekly alpha trials

In Q3, users will get to play Dimensionals by competing for unique collectibles in weekly alpha tournaments with Mino Games’ CEO, Sasha MacKinnon, who will live stream the alpha build on Discord every week for six weeks. Each week, the game will open up for 48 hours with a new raid, story, enemies, and characters.

“We’re trying something different to engage our community. Our alpha trials are almost like a game show rather than a closed playtest,” said MacKinnon. “You can play, compete, watch, chat with the developers, and win super rare Dimensionals NFTs – all live on Discord.”

NFT holders of Eve, Dimensionals’ mascot, will be eligible to play and win giveaways, such as toys, in-game resources, and NFT heroes during the alpha trials on Mac and Windows. Players can apply to be whitelisted for Eve and gain access to special channels, products, and events in Dimensionals.

The blockchain title will be a cross-platform game available on desktop (Windows and Mac), mobile (iOS and Android), and major consoles (PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch). Mino Games will deploy AI-related functions and more throughout the year to enhance Dimensionals’ gameplay experience.

It was on May 31 that the co-founder of the RPG series Illuvium, Kieran Warwick, released a statement in the Discord community that he had raised an additional $10 million in funding from Framework Ventures.

The money raised will accelerate the development of this game. This transaction is completed through a token, which will be locked for two years and will not be included in the commit, so it will not participate in the distribution of benefits.

Reportedly, Illuvium is an entirely decentralized collectible and role-playing game built on the Immutable X L2 network. Illuvium is about to launch a public beta with three interactive AAA games: Zero (city builder), Overworld (monster world), and Arena (arena).

Founded last year by Kieran and Aaron Warwick, this RPG has created a game that rewards players with the chance to discover and capture NFT creatures, known as Illuvials, in combat. The game incentivizes players to have a stake in the project, as the Illuvium network allows in-game fees to be paid out to staked token holders as ongoing rewards.

In March 2021, Illuvium successfully raised $5 million in a seed round led by one of the oldest venture capital funds in the decentralized finance, Framework Ventures. The project has also received financial support from IOSG Ventures, LD Capital, Delphi Digital, YBB Foundation Ltd, Stake Capital, Moonwhale Ventures, Lotus Capital, Blocksync Ventures, Bitscale Capital, Quantstamp, Yield Guild Games, Bitcoin.com, …

In mid-April 2022, Framework Ventures, a backer of Illuvium and Stardust, said it would invest $200 million in blockchain game projects following the launch of a $400 million fund.

A Fully Decentralised RPG and Collection Game Built On The Immutable X L2 Network

Introduction

Welcome to the world of Illuvium. A shattered land of beauty and wonder. Travel the vast and varied landscape hunting dangerous beasts, then capture them to battle in the Arenas or trade via the exchange.

Prior to launch of the game, $ILV holders may choose to stake $ILV to access the liquidity mining program (a type of ‘yield farming’ that has become popular with DeFi protocols where the founding teams seek to decentralise the governance of the protocol).

The purpose of the liquidity mining program is to distribute $ILV from the Illuvium Treasury to early Illuvium community members to: 1) achieve a distributed holding of $ILV tokens across more of the Illuvium community, 2) incentivise new people to participate in the Illuvium community, and 3) to enable a more liquid and transparent market for the trading of $ILV. The greater the size of the Illuvium community, the greater the prospects of decentralised governance as well as a self-regulating community that discourages bad actors and manipulation of governance and the game. Once the game is launched, users can stake $ILV as a signal of belief and support in the game and its governance model and receive access to governance and distributions from in-game fees.

A fully decentralized protocol, Illuvium represents a new age in gaming. It has been engineered from the ground-up to support the long-term sustainability of the Illuvium game and governance and provide players with a AAA-rated blockchain gaming experience. What makes Illuvium unique is that stakers receive regular distributions and can vote on everything from tokenomics related issues to the features in the game itself. With Illuvium, the power to define the project into the future is purposefully left to those who stake in the protocol.

Why DeFi?

The primary goal of the project is to create a fully decentralised game that can run autonomously. Over the last 18 months, and particularly in the last six, DeFi apps have seen impressive growth and rapid development. There are hundreds of DeFi projects gaining traction today—from trading, lending, and wallet interfaces, to assets and communities representing over 15B $USD in value. DeFi allows us to leverage this exciting growth to bootstrap a solvent platform that can hit the ground running for the increasing market interest in DeFi projects.

We are already starting to see a shift away from “novelty projects” that don’t add tangible value because ultimately they are unsustainable. We strongly believe a decentralised gaming economy provides the best fusion between crypto/blockchain/DAO enthusiasts and gamers looking for open access devoid of corporate interference.

There are currently no AAA gaming titles with cinematic quality 3D special effects in an immersive open-world RPG built in DeFi, and Illuvium merges gaming and cryptocurrency in a unique synergy that holds allure for crypto enthusiasts, dedicated gamers, and the curious tech-savvy public. By having gorgeous, functional, and rare NFTs, as well as a high replay value, Illuvium will keep players interested in the $ILV protocol longer, ensuring the stability of the underlying NFT assets and the token pool.

(There are risks associated with DeFi, particularly staking and smart contract risk, and contract configurations are being developed continuously and subject to change and sentiment expressed by the Illuvium community).

Layer 2 Ethereum Scaling Solution – Immutable X

Ownership is vital to collection games. If you don’t own your collection, the entire value proposition falls apart. This is why digital media has struggled in this space and why games with tangible assets, such as card games, have stood the test of time. But with the advent of NFTs and the investigation of their implications, the conventions about ownership, value, and utility of digital property all change.

So what is an NFT?

An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a crypto token representing a verifiably unique entity that is mutually interchangeable. The first NFT-like token was launched back in 2012 and was built on the Bitcoin blockchain. However, the most common NFT, ERC-721, is built on the Ethereum network.

NFTs became popular with the launch of CryptoKitties back in November 2017. Being a blockchain based game built on Ethereum, CryptoKitties was prone to multiple scalability issues. However, the rarity of owning an NFT captured everyone’s attention. Since then, add-ons and NFTs have found their way into many games, art and collectables.

Why did Illuvium choose Immutable X?

One of the primary issues NFT projects and users are currently facing is the cost of performing transactions on the Ethereum network. With limitations on the number of transactions Ethereum can handle, users on the network have bid up gas prices to ensure their transactions quickly settle. With the average cost of transferring an NFT averaging $15 at the time of writing, trading volume for NFTs has plummeted.

Immutable X changes this, allowing users to trade their NFTs without paying gas fees using what is known as a Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Rollup. Aside from just the savings in gas fees, this provides you with a variety of benefits, including:

• You maintain self-custody of your NFTs with the same level of security as mainchain Ethereum, something not seen in alternative scaling solutions like Matic and xDai.
• Transactions are instant, and moving back to mainchain Ethereum is trustless and verifiable.
• Unlike other solutions, there is no need for you to own a unique L2 token to buy, sell, send, or receive NFTs.
• You get more interesting and attractive game mechanics and design from Illuvium thanks to off-chain minting (more on that later).
• Immutable X will provide turing-complete general computation in the near future thanks to Cairo, technology developed by their partners over at StarkWare.
• Immutable engine supports over 9000 transactions per second

Immutable X also focuses on improving NFT liquidity to ensure as a buyer you find what you’re looking for, and as a seller you can find someone who wants your NFT. This is done in a couple of ways:

• They’ve created what is known as a “metadata order”, or the ability for buyers to quickly and easily purchase assets (single, or in bulk) based on an NFTs underlying properties (or “metadata”). This is a major advancement over today’s high-friction trading, where users are often forced to sort through thousands of NFTs that differ ever so slightly to find what they’re looking for at the best available price.
• Immutable X offers pooled liquidity, allowing assets to be listed instantly on every exchange that supports Immutable X.

If you’re not familiar with ZK Rollups, why they’re considered the best solution for scaling on Ethereum, and want to learn more, we’d recommend Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin’s recent guide on Rollups.

Illuvium’s Core Mechanics: Minting, Burning, and Exchange

From the very beginning, the standard paradigm of most NFT games had become uninteresting, and lacking in utility. Buy a digital asset, own it, and hope it appreciates in value. Some games allow you to buy NFTs and then play with them in a game. While certainly an improvement, we still felt there was more to the experience. There had to be a way to establish an emotional connection between the players and their collections. We aren’t the only ones to see the gap, and the subsequent opportunity in this, but we wanted to provide the most distinctive and original solution: an emotive experience that was consistently intriguing and rewarding throughout the entire process, from discovery all the way to exchange.

Inside Illuvium, you will encounter wild, mysterious, and combative creatures called Illuvials. On your journey through the many regions of this broken planet, you hunt, defeat, and capture them. To do this, you need a Shard; a specially-constructed sliver of crystal that traps the quantum signature of the beast inside. The quality of your Shard determines the chance of capture. A successful capture results in a new NFT token representing the Illuvial being minted and stored in your wallet. When you manage to capture a few of the same type, you Fuse them together, which burns the existing tokens and mints a more powerful creature.

Immutable X makes this vital process much easier, by taking away distraction and letting players simply explore and enjoy the world. Players are not bombarded by constant GAS fees for every little change to their collection. And transactions happen much faster, so players can stay focused on what they came here to do: Explore, Collect, Battle, and Earn.

Game Overview

Intro

You take the role of a survivor of a transport vessel in an intergalactic space fleet, investigating a perplexing distress beacon. When you finally reach the origin of the call, you discover a ruined planet, possibly the mythical cradle of your race’s civilization. A vast crystal ocean engulfs all but a tiny fraction of the planet. Extreme weather events assault the surface, giving way to strikingly varied climates. A burst of radiation disables the ship’s engines and you slam into the planet’s surface. Crawling free from the wreckage, you discover majestic beasts, some with near godlike power. Could this be what caused the downfall of this planet? Luckily, your race has begun to master the same energy that the Illuvials harness, and you are able to capture and control the deity-like fauna into slivers of crystal called Shards, mined from the planet’s surface. To uncover the mysteries of the planet, you become a Hunter, traveling across the land subduing and capturing Illuvials, and trying to unlock the Obelisks that keep most of the world closed off.

Note: Game is in development and all details are subject to change.

What are Illuvials?

The planet’s core spills out a strange radiation that the beasts harness to grow, mutate, and unleash deadly attacks. Some Illuvials are easy to find, some are incredibly rare. They are found across a vast landscape. The radiation itself pulses in a non organic way that seems vaguely familiar. There are more than 100 Illuvials to find and collect throughout the world, each possessing unique abilities. They form symbiotic relationships with one another based on common affinities or classes, called Synergies. Using a Hybrid Synergy System, Illuvials are stronger when working as a team in the Battle Arena so make sure to collect synergising pairs to maximise your chance of victory. Different synergies create different bonuses for your team, allowing you to outplay your opponent—even if they have Illuvials with more raw power than you. Fusion allows you to merge multiple Illuvials of the same type into a more powerful beast, with different attributes, sometimes belonging to a completely different Class or Type. Remember that some Lines of Illuvials are very rare and hard to find, making their Fused form even more difficult to discover

Team Building

In the immersive environment of this shattered planet, Illuvials phase in and out of existence and will be hard to track (both to hunt and avoid) — but when you do, don’t expect an easy fight. Once the battle starts, each Illuvial will find an enemy to engage in combat, aided by your in-game character who possesses technology advanced enough to stand firm against these incredibly powerful creatures. Keep in mind the synergies between Illuvials — it can be the difference between victory and defeat! Engage the mysterious Illuvials in battle — and if you win, they can be stored in a Shard, where they will accompany you on your personal Odyssey. Shards vary in power — if you’re dealing with stronger Illuvials, be sure to use a stronger Shard. Otherwise, you risk losing that rare creature forever. Combat will make them stronger, grow in levels, and develop their power. Once you collect three that have each reached their threshold level, you can fuse them together into a single, more powerful creature. Don’t worry if an Illuvial gets injured — the shard it returns to has a time-based regenerative protocol for anything stored within it. Your fighting team will be able to get back to full health over certain intervals of time. If you want them back right away, however, it can be done by using various items or paying a small fee to bring them back to full health. Some are more rare than others, and if you are lucky you might just get a Shiny, Gold, or Holographic rare capture. If you do, your Illuvial will always stand out, intimidate, and perhaps reign undefeated, in the Arenas.

Affinities

The origins of Illuvials themselves is a mystery, but so is their affinity to the elements of this alien world. Illuvials connect predominantly with one of 5 elements: Water, Fire, Earth, Air and Nature. The most powerful Ascended form affinities with two elements (Frost = Air + Water), or a stronger bond with a single element (Inferno = Fire + Fire). Make sure your team is strategically chosen. Your Archeleon might be strong with its Overgrowth Affinity (Nature + Nature), but in combat with an Inferno Illuvial they will be at a severe disadvantage so choose wisely.

Classes

Illuvials are grouped into one of 5 classes: Fighter, Guardian, Rogue, Psion and Empath. As in many RPGs, the choices you make regarding the class of your Illuvials will affect the outcome of your battles with wild Illuvials. Draft a team ideally synergistic in qualities and traits that can work well together as a single fighting unit. Ascended forms are so powerful that sometimes they embody two classes simultaneously, such as Slayer (Fighter + Rogue), or become stronger in a single class such as Invoker (Psion + Psion).

The Illuviary

After the crash, you stumble upon an almanac, with the word “Illuviary” scrawled across it. One of your people must have landed here long ago. Inside, you will find an index of every Illuvial found across Illuvium, but all locked. To unlock the entries you must find and capture the Illuvials and record their digital signature into the Illuviary. If you are the first in the universe to discover a particular digital signature, your name will forever appear next to your discovery in the worldwide Illuviary database. But this digital signature contains far more than just their biology… It just might be the key to unlocking the mystery of Illuvium. From its inception, we envisioned Illuvium to be a game of discovery and mystery. As such, on release there will be no public information in-advance regarding many of the Illuvials in the world. We expect that many of the entries will be filled on Day One, but we hope that players enjoy that sense of wonder that comes from pure discovery and exploration.

How Do I Play?

Start by customising your character. Then select your Polymorphic Subordinate Drone. Once you and your sidekick are ready, you can then head out to explore the various regions of the world, and the mysteries that shattered it. As you adventure, you will encounter Illuvials that you can fight. If you subdue them, use a Shard to snap them up so they are yours permanently. Be careful though, Shards have varying power levels. Less powerful Shards are likely to fail against powerful Illuvials. For players just starting out, you will be able to mine free shards that are only capable of capturing a select few Illuvials that are far less powerful than some. But you will be able to get started in the game without any expense and learn the mechanics. We feel this is a welcome change from games that require a large amount of capital upfront to play. There are many regions to explore, but most will be inaccessible to the first generation of players. Over time, players will unlock Obelisks which allow for travel to new beautiful, challenging, and important regions that come with new Illuvials to battle and collect, and shed more light on the enigma that happened here.

In-Game Purchases

ETH is used for all in-game purchases and the fees are sent directly to the Illuvium Vault.

• Shard Curing
• Imbues (Modification to various elements of the game such as weapons or Drones)
• Wagering Battles
• Illuvium Revival (medical fees)
• Obelisk Travel
• Enhancements (Powerful stat boosts to the Illuvials)

Adventuring

For some players, the draw of the game will be travelling across the world and collecting Illuvials. This can be incredibly lucrative, especially if a player manages to capture something rare and powerful. Illuvials will become harder to capture over time. As more and more are found, their capture rate will change, because it is fundamentally tied to the number that have been captured thus far. The difficulty to capture Illuvials will also grow. As you adventure and encounter Illuvials in the wild, your current team (including yourself) will grow in power.

Battle Arenas

Other players will choose to battle each other to prove who is the superior Hunter. These players will queue in the Ranked Arena where they can be matched with a random opponent of a similar skill, or call out other players in ad-hoc wagered matches in the Leviathan Arena. Other players will be able to spectate and wager on the outcomes.

IlluviDEX (The Illuvium Exchange)

The Illuvium exchange is an online marketplace, governed by the Illuvium DAO, for players to buy and sell all in-game NFTs. The major component of the IlluviDEX is the trading of Illuvials, but all NFTs found in the game can be traded there..

Mining and Harvesting

Your subordinate drone isn’t just a good-looking gadget. In addition to storage and assistance during battle, your PSD is also capable of mining minerals from the planet’s surface, and forging them into useful items. The landscape is speckled with deposits that contain ore, uncured shards, and rare gemstones. After harvesting these, use your drone to forge them into weapons and suits of armor by infusing the materials with energy. Some materials are much more rare, and provide stronger bonuses to your equipment. Wield these yourself for an advantage in combat, or sell them on the IlluviDEX. Illuvium is also littered with trees that produce various alien fruits that pulsate with energy. Harvest these to create enhancements for your Illuvials in battle, or to nurse them back to health without heading back to Sanctum Mesa.

Shards

Shards are probably the most important item in the game. It is only with these shards that players are able to capture Illuvials that they best in combat. As such, each player will want to be stocked with a few before venturing into the world. You can mine them from deposits, but you’ll always want to make sure you have something available in case you encounter a rare Illuvial. Like most elements in the game, Shards come in a variety of tiers based on their power at capturing Illuvials. The stronger the Illuvial, the harder they are to capture. This is where a strong shard is most effective. The quality of the shard you pull from the ground is random, with the most powerful ones being the rarest. If you want to make sure that you can capture everything you find in the world, then it is worth checking out the IlluviDEX where you can acquire shards.

Weapons

In Illuvium, it is not just the Illuvials that fight. You as the player character get to fight in the battle, wielding futuristic weapons that can be equipped with gemstones that store the essence of Illuvials, allowing you to emit an aura that boosts your Illuvials in combat. Your choice of weapons also determines your class, which gives additional benefits to your team. Weapons can be sold on the IlluviDEX like most other NFTs in the game.

Armor

Also forged from items mined on Illuvium, armour is your defense against the beasts that you fight. If your armour becomes too damaged you may need to wait until it regenerates. However, your choice of armour can sway the battle, as each suit has different properties. Choosing the right one for you and your team is one of the many decisions you will make in the game. Armor can be sold on the IlluviDEX like most other NFTs in the game.

Imbues

Imbues are cosmetic changes that can add value to a player’s collection by further differentiating their acquisitions from others. Imbues are modular in nature and can be applied to multiple items, or you may decide to sell them on the IlluviDEX. Various items in the game can be imbued, such as weapons, armour and even your Drone.

Ambush mode features one to four players fighting in an arena against increasingly difficult waves of enemies. The contest offers a prize of $100. To participate, play Ambush mode, and then post a screenshot of your best result #ambush-challenge section of the Chronos Discord server. You are allowed to make multiple entries if you best your previous top score.

Players don’t need to own any NFTs to play, but bootstrapping yourself up after your initial gear wears out is not an easy process. Finding enough resources to craft is a long process, and the gear wears out quickly. Players can purchase game NFTs on Open Sea (Travelers – Items)

What is Chronos?

Chronos is a multiplayer, side-scrolling, RPG game. Players share a central social hub with shops, crafting stations and such. They then venture through the portal to join a match. Chronos features several game modes, including team PvP, survival arena PvE, and a mixed PvE / PvP mode.

Players can earn crafting resources and Dark Aether tokens by playing matches. But each character has limited energy, which refills slowly over time. Players can spend crystals to upgrade their character stats and spend skill points acquired in-game to also improve and customize their characters with special abilities.

Avatars begin naked, but can equip various weapons and armor. A couple of starter quests help provide the player with basic gear. However, this gear wears down with use, and there is no repair option! On the other hand, NFT items do not wear down, making them very useful to own! At the moment, there actually isn’t much NFT gear available to buy, but the team says there will be a sale in the future as well as an option for those who own Travelers to mint NFTs.

Travelers are the NFT avatars for the game and come with stat boosts and other bonuses.

Shatterpoint is an NFT-based, Free-to-Play (F2P), action RPG mobile game built on the Polygon blockchain. Players battle in a Player vs Environment (PvE) campaign to gain Abilities, Experience, and the Equipment needed to take on the challenge of Player vs Player (PvP), the combat mode where in-game Tokens, rewards, and leaderboard domination are at stake.

Welcome to the ShatterPoint Universe

Our world is at risk, do you have the skills to ensure your survival?

500 years ago marks the first time historians recorded the Portals, which were said to have appeared out of nowhere. These mysterious gateways released countless barbaric warriors, twisted monsters, and endless armies across our world.
‍
Most of the world was destroyed, but hope was not lost, for a new army of courageous heroes emerged. Led by the one called Karluq, his band of heroes became known as The Travelers. They were the first to travel to the stars in search of a way to defend their worlds.
‍
Your story begins as you join the honored ranks of The Travelers!

Set in the Shatterpoint universe, players try to escape The Shattering. This irreversible phenomenon resets all the stats of non-NFT Heroes back to zero at the end of each Season. Competing over time-limited challenges, players develop their skill-based gameplay to win in-game resources, progress through the game, and perhaps turn their non-NFT Hero into an NFT, never to fall victim to The Shattering again. Become stronger by acquiring Equipment, upgrading Runes and collecting Quantus. Quantus is an in-game token/resource required for various in-game actions.

Play & Own

Unlike other unsustainable Play-to-Earn and Pay-to-Win games on the market, Shatterpoint focuses on skill-based Free-to-Play and Play & Own models. Shatterpoint is a level playing field – all players have the possibility to upgrade to an NFT-powered Hero and acquire NFT Runes via gameplay. At this point, Shatterpoint becomes a Play & Own game offering players a near-infinite number of playable strategies.

Available on mobile

The Shatterpoint game will be available on App Store and Google Play, while the marketplace will be accessible via mobile and desktop browsers.

Game lore

Spacetime is not as rigid as it seems. From this point onwards, the Interstice, the space in between dimensions, is becoming unstable. In the event called the Shattering, it will break, and time will fold unto itself, molding, ripping, and merging until… it resets to its previous stable state, only to shatter again.
None the wiser, everyone continues through the next cycle — all except for Karluq. He knows the ultimate fate of the universe only too well, retaining his memories and power. Karluq may not be strong enough to affect these cycles on his own, but he can get help. Through the numerous Shatterings, by trial and error, Karluq recruits Travelers: Free Awarenesses merged with Vessels.
Players find themselves in the Interstice as a Free Awareness, able to jump between multiple Vessels and travel through portals to other dimensions. Now they need to venture forth and make their Vessels strong enough to survive the upcoming Shatterings.

The Shattering

At the end of each Season, the universe collapses in on itself in The Shattering. The phenomenon resets all non-NFT Hero levels to their introductory levels. To give existing players an advantage over new ones, everyone gets to keep their Runes and Tokens, with all collected Gear dismantled into Equipment Shards. While devastating, The Shattering allows the universe to recreate itself at the beginning of each Season with new enemies, campaign modes to traverse, and bigger worlds to discover.

Gameplay

PvE
Campaign
The Campaign is (currently) divided into 5 Worlds. Each World has 2 modes: Campaign and Skirmish.

Campaign Levels

Completing Campaign Levels furthers the overall Campaign progress and unlocks new Worlds. Players encounter enemies, find gear chests, and have to complete the main Quest to finish the Level. They can also complete optional Quests to gain more Experience.
Campaign Levels are relatively safe, allowing Players to familiarise themselves with the game’s mechanics. Partial level progress is not saved.

Boss Levels
Boss Levels are a special type of Campaign Level. They are arenas made for facing off against very strong opponent with their own unique mechanics.

If a Boss is not defeated within a certain time limit, they become Enraged. In this mode, the Boss gains various buffs: more damaging attacks, regenerating health, and weak enemies appearing to help, depending on the Boss. While not impossible to win against an Enraged boss, it is considerably more difficult.

Skirmish Levels
Skirmish Levels are endless. They’re mainly for gathering gear from defeated mobs. Items collected are immediately available to be equipped from the inventory screen. Skirmish Levels do not further the main Campaign and are optional.

Enemies
Each world has a unique set of enemies relevant to the world’s environment. Players must be prepared to fight melee, ranged, and other mobs with various special abilities.

Loot

During the adventures in Campaign mode, players receive plenty of equippable items either dropped by defeated enemies or in loot boxes. All equipment provides various affixes and intrinsic stats, and some also give the player abilities (see Equipment section for more info).

PvP

Player vs Player core mode is a best-of-5 3v3 arena team deathmatch. Every player enters with a hero they own or rent. Heroes are not limited, because identical heroes can be built differently, depending on gear.

Initially, matchmaking will be based on a combination of Power Potential (a way of calculating total gear level) and Win/Loss. Before launching a ranked mode, we will most likely implement a form of Elo rating system.

Players can wager some QUA. Winner takes all. We’re also considering a way to introduce asymmetrical wagering.

Shatterpoint economy

The Shatterpoint economy is designed to be run by players for players. Since the in-game reward resource, QUA, is off-chain and non-tradable (except in limited amounts for $SHA via the Shatterpoint Treasury), the economy revolves around NFTs – Heroes, Runes, and more.

Each new season holds the promise of new Heroes but the virtual certainty of new Gear destined to shift the game’s meta. The Gear may fit some Heroes better than others and will need Runes that differ from the previous season’s to boost different abilities. Chasing the latest/hottest build (mix of Hero, Gear and Runes) will fuel the Shatterpoint marketplace and drive the economy.
The Shatterpoint economy will elicit assorted participants and activities – Rune traders and Rune mergers, for example. Traders will purchase Runes on the marketplace, focusing on those that boost particular abilities, gambling on the potential popularity and increasing value of certain boosts in future seasons. Rune mergers will see traders acquiring cheap “redundant” Runes with zero or very few boosts, trying their luck at Merging to create rarer, perhaps more powerful Runes.

We’ll be announcing further details on the Shatterpoint economy as more information is released.

Game resources

Shards
Shards, also known as Equipment Shards, are an in-game resource acquired by dismantling equipment collected in PvE mode, after which they are spent together with Quantus (QUA) to receive Utility Boxes.
Quantus (QUA)
Quantus (QUA) is an infinite-supply in-game reward token for activities within the game
QUA Sources
Players earn QUA by playing the game:
Achievements – A wide array of achievements for the most skilled and committed players to unlock and reap the rewards. Benefits include, but are not limited to QUA
Daily/Weekly/Seasonal Challenges – Available to all players daily/weekly/seasonally, allowing anyone to earn QUA and incentivizing users to be active in PvE & PvP modes
Tournaments & Special Events – The opportunity to win QUA in a series of Tournaments, exciting game modes, and Special Events
Wagered PvP Fights – Players can wage QUA and compete in a number of PvP modes, with winners splitting the prize pool
QUA Uses
Players use QUA for in-game activities, such as:
Engraving & Merging Runes – Runes are an essential part of the gameplay. QUA is needed for Engraving and Merging Runes to reach their full potential
Hero Trait Unlock – QUA is needed to unlock the Hero’s hidden Traits. These Traits strengthen Heroes by increasing their stat points
Hero Trait Reroll – Players can use QUA to reroll their Hero Traits, giving them the potential to gain a Rare or Legendary Trait while boosting the power and value of their character
Utility Boxes – In-game Equipment Shards can be spent together with QUA to receive Utility Boxes containing Gear
Equipment Repair – All equipment items can be repaired using QUA, allowing players to continue using their beneficial powers and beloved gear
Tournament & Special Event tickets – To participate in Special Events and Tournaments where the highest rewards are won, players will need QUA to purchase entry tickets
The Shatterpoint team is currently considering allowing the withdrawal of a limited number of in-game QUA tokens via the Shatterpoint Treasury and exchange to $SHA. With that, we would allow other players to purchase in-game QUA for $SHA from the Shatterpoint Treasury, but only the amount made available by other players selling QUA. It would work as a market maker between players wanting to exchange QUA to $SHA and vice-versa, with price adjustment dependent on supply/demand.

NFTs

The Shatter Point game will have several distinct types of Non-Fungible tokens (NFTs):
Heroes are at the core of Shatterpoint. They are NFT or non-NFT player-controlled avatars engaging in PvE and PvP gameplay modes
NFT Heroes are distributed in limited quantities across each Season
NFT Heroes are incredibly valuable as they avoid the Shattering and keep their level and Traits across Seasons, while all non-NFT Heroes are reset to level 1 and lose their Traits each Season
Every Hero is unique due to its individual set of randomly rolled Traits
Runes are powerful, game-changing artifacts that Heroes can equip to upgrade the special abilities of the items wielded by the character
Cosmetics – skins (cosmetic changes) that can be applied to your equipment, with every Season having a unique set of skins released that may only be acquired during that particular Season
More types of NFT items are being considered and will be added to the game (e.g., Rune Chisels), which can be used by players to add additional Rune slots to their equipment items

Shatterpoint ($SHA)

Shatterpoint ($SHA) is the Governance & Ecosystem Token with several uses:
Governance Token – stake and vote on Shatterpoint’s development/governance decisions. More info to be shared soon.
Staking Rewards – get staking rewards in the form of APY and NFTs. The team is also evaluating to distribute proportion of the Shatterpoint NFT royalties back to the community through Staking.
Bridge between in-game QUA that can be exchanged to/from $SHA in limited quantities.
The team is evaluating the potential for integrating this currency for use on the Shatterpoint Marketplace.
More to be announced and added as the game grows.
Not used as an in-game resource initially. However, in future seasons some NFT upgrade-related activities might be shifted from QUA to $SHA.
Since $SHA will be listed on all the largest exchanges, players can exchange any cryptocurrency for $SHA and vice versa at the market rate.

Fight of the Ages FOTA is a AAA metaverse gaming project which is under the hybrid of MOBA-RPG and integrated with MicrosoftMesh (MR) Technology

Introduction

In 2021, Blockchain has become an industry with the most impressive growth of more than 500% in total market capitalization, from 500 billion dollars to 2500 billion dollars. The reason for that tremendous growth is the advancement of large-scale applications in areas such as Web 3.0, Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Non-fungible Tokens, and Gaming. As a result, pioneers and engineers are always looking for new applications to accelerate the development of Blockchain technology and Cryptocurrency.
Based on the development trend of this technology, soon, NFT and GameFi technologies will become highlights of the entire market with their practical applications. Non-Fungible Tokens open the possibility of storing digital assets to guarantee ownership, transparency, and integration of transaction capabilities on the Blockchain network. GameFi allows users to both engage in entertainment and generate monthly income by combining finance mechanics with the game industry. Therefore, digital property ownership is promoted amid the Internet era, becoming the second world of humankind.

However, the Internet currently allows us to experience a flat world, with a simple interactive interface and a focus on information storage mechanisms. Therefore, experts formed the concept of Metaverse to expand the Internet platform into a place capable of interacting with virtual reality. Blockchain and Cryptocurrency are introduced to perfect this technology to maintain security and, more specifically, to store digital assets (such as Virtual space, Digital artwork, and Online Services). NFTs will become the core technology in the Metaverse world when it can identify the ownership of digital assets or allow the trading of assets right in the Metaverse world through trading centers based on Blockchain technology.

It is from here that the need to form creative worlds with Metaverse technology has led to an outburst. Fantasy worlds are becoming more realistic than ever, allowing participants to experience life in various styles. Users can transform into inhabitants of the new world, with the ability to experience breath-taking vistas or perform tasks they have never done before. Besides, the demand for shopping and owning digital assets will become more significant than ever. Games will not only be interactive on 2D or 3D graphics platforms, but they will also allow players to become heroes or favorite characters directly. With the above arguments, the demand for a gaming platform to integrate Metaverse and NFT technology is becoming stronger and stronger.

FOTA is a Triple-A MOBA Game project owned by Meta DJINN PTE.LTD and based in SINGAPORE, with a fantasy universe inhabited by many races throughout the universe. In the world of FOTA, NFT Technology is optimized so that users can feel the possibility of owning valuable digital assets during the journey. More than just a MOBA game platform, the development team has also introduced economic mechanisms and democracies through the DAO. With a view to turning this Metaverse platform into an ever more realistic universe that integrates Microsoft Mesh (a Microsoft Corporation platform pioneering in creating the most immersive Metaverse experience.)

The history of the FOTA Universe

In the early days, the universe was an infinite space covered with darkness, there was an evil entity called the Darkness. And then one day, the most destructive explosion ever happened, bending all space-time, tearing the silence apart, pushing back the dark and ushering in an era of mysterious chaos.
The energy from that explosion reshaped the universe and gave birth to two opposite realms – The Physical and the Spiritual Realm. Those two realms coexisted like two sides of the same coin, bringing the universe back into balance. From here, there were contrary concepts giving explanations for the dawn of all creation: the light and the dark, life and death… The explosion was later called the Big Bang, Aether – or “Creator” – was the name given to the energy source it generated. The reason for the name “Creator” was that Aether sent energy throughout the universe to urge on the advancement of all creatures, allowing life to flourish wherever it reaches. In the Spiritual Realm, the first rays of light in the explosion were shaped and linked together to form a beautiful land known as “The Greenland – The Land of Eternity”.

The pure energy of Aether slowly turned into the soul, and thus the first living things – The Omni – were born. For being closest to the Aether, the Omni possess supernatural power and the Eye that can see things, create space. Besides the powerful Omni, there is also the Dragon – mysterious and long-lived creatures which were born from the primordial light. All have made the Greenland extremely flourishing and they are all aware of their race’s great responsibility in protecting, maintaining, and developing the universe’s balance. Thus, many Omnis have used their power to open Space Bridge in search of new lands, track and guide native races to use Aether’s energy to push the advancement of their worlds. Therefore, the Omni are worshiped as the gods of the big universe. However, the Omni realized that due to the boundary between the two realms, they could not communicate directly with other races in the Physical Realm. Beings on the Physical Realm, on the other hand, did not know how to unlock the hidden spiritual power within their bodies, so these creatures are far inferior to those of the Greenland – Omnis and Dragons. As a result, the Omni have found many ways, trying to communicate with the Physical Realm but all are very limited.

As opposed to the Greenland of Spiritual Realm, the Physical Realm is consistent with the laws of nature, with the physical body. The Aether energy in each being is very little and not everyone can feel it, except for magicians, no one else has this kind of power. These magicians are born with the Eye, which allows them to sense and use the power from Aether, they come from many races but mostly the Human on the Earth – the dominant beings in the Physical Realm. Those magicians gathered together and built The Sun Temple to train and control the power of Aether, they called it magic and let other inferior creatures take advantage of it with complex spells. Passing through many hardships, only the most powerful magicians could interact with the Omni and usher in a new era for the Human and the Physical Realm.

In order to maintain the universe’s balance and prove their role, the Omni began to teach the Human to utilize the power of Aether and unlock their hidden power. The first human magicians, led by The Omni, evolved to a higher level and became The Elf – lived under the guard of the Omni, they worshiped and lived their lives in the manner of the Omni. From here, the Earth flourished and became the greatest Middle-Earth that history has ever recorded, thanks to the Great Magic at the Sun Temple.
The interaction between the two realms appeared to be a beautiful dream bringing prosperity and balance to this universe from now on, no one knew it was just the calm before the storm. At that time, the Silver Serpent – the most powerful king of the Earth, with ambitions to rule the realms, had given the order to carry out horrific experiments on the human body to explore the Aether and master its power. Then, he realized that the Aether energy would strengthen their natures, skills and make them stronger than ever, the more energy they absorbed, the stronger they became. Those who were stripped of their Aether would soon become mindless zombies who just took orders from others. This incident led to chaos on the Earth and war broke out between two sides – One side were the Elves and magicians fighting against the brutal evil, while the other side were the cruel king and the fallen magicians – who wanted to use Dark Magic and search for ruins of the Darkness.

Besides the never-ending war against evil, there was a group believing that magic would bring disasters to all living creatures and finding ways to eliminate it out of this universe. This group was called the Keen, they developed a wide range of advanced machines with destructive power as terrifying as magic and were willing to kill anyone possessing magic as a way to save their universe. That just made everything go from bad to worse – there were more wars and wars lasting for centuries and leading to long-standing feuds among many sides.
With the chaos on the Earth, there was a conflict in the world of the Omni. One side tried to protect the Earth beings as well as find ways to solve everything peacefully, the other side said that the Earth had gradually corrupted and needed to be eliminated to bring back the balance for other worlds. The conflict occurred, those disgruntled shaped the course of history by destroying the Earth alone. Then, right on the Greenland, a battle took place between the Omnis, without the support of the Dragons, the group of disgruntled Omnis was quickly defeated, stripped of their power and banished from their homeland forever. After this failure, those Omnis became more and more negative and they were devoured by envy and hatred towards the Greenland, they believed that their race, the Omni, were the most powerful beings in the universe to conquer all life.

After being exiled, they wandered around the realms and then arrived at the deepest part of the whole universe – The Nightmare – where the light could not reach and everything here was all in utter darkness, this was also where the evil entity the Darkness resided after the Big Bang. Those lost Omnis soon absorbed the dark power here and slowly turned into a new race called the Demon. They named themselves Lords from Hell, accompanied with the dark creatures born of fire and dust of the Darkness – The Beast, with its bloodthirsty nature, the Beast quickly became ruthless killing machines, the right hand of the Demon. Now, the Demons are just waiting for the chance to avenge their old feud with The Omni and begin their quest to rule all realms.
Without a shadow of dark, the real Omnis has learnt of the existence of Demons and Beasts, they offered alliances to not only the Dragon but also the Elf and Magicians on the Earth, ready for the next fight of the age.

The Demons were not less than that, they came to the Earth, bestowed dark power from the Darkness as well as conciliated the fallen magicians to their side, turned them into an army known as the Orge. Unlike the Elf, the Ogre gradually became an obsession for all creatures on the Earth. They kept gathering more heretics and performing ritual sacrifices in order to summon thousands of fearsome monsters to devour the Human. This moment glorified the horrors of the worst war in universe history, known as the Dark Moon War, every creature rushed to war for one, singular purpose: to be the last one to survive and claim the Aether for themselves. A new era is about to dawn!
