Once a popular NFT project, EtherOrcs garnered a lot of attention from the crypto community due to its unique approach to NFTs. Unlike other projects, EtherOrcs was launched as a free project without any monetization plans. This led to a large following of dedicated fans who enjoyed the game and its lore.

However, despite its popularity, EtherOrcs ultimately shuttered due to a lack of funding. With less than 400 ETH in total royalties, the project became unsustainable and the team behind it was forced to make the difficult decision to end its run.

Despite this setback, the EtherOrcs project is embracing a new approach to NFTs. Instead of allowing the project to fade into obscurity, the team behind it is embracing the Creative Commons Zero (CC0) license. This means that the IP for EtherOrcs is now available for others to build upon and continue its legacy.

The CC0 license is an important step for the EtherOrcs project, as it allows for the creation of new and exciting projects that can carry on its spirit. With the IP now open for anyone to use, there is the potential for new games, merchandise, and other products that can keep the memory of EtherOrcs alive.

Overall, the story of EtherOrcs is a testament to the importance of funding for NFT projects. Despite its popularity, the lack of financial support ultimately led to its downfall. However, by embracing CC0, the project is now able to live on in new and exciting ways. Whether you were a fan of EtherOrcs or not, it’s an interesting case study in the world of NFTs and serves as a reminder of the importance of sustainability in the crypto world.

BattleMancers Genesis NFT collection is formed of 3333 unique collectibles with six different races; Humans, Orcs, Elves, Demons, Dragonkin and Death Knights. The collection also has its own game called BattleMancers. BattleMancers is a play-to-earn game built in Unity and integrated to blockchain via Ethereum Network. The game is multiplayer with a real time strategy, tower defense genre. The project aims to develop a game that can accommodate web2 and web3 players simultaneously without actually diluting the rewards & investments of NFT owners.

What is the projects launch date? Sep 7, 7pm UTC

How did you come up with the ideas?

All members of our team are gamers, so we knew we wanted to build a game. The only thing we had to resolve was the problems related to P2E games. So we worked heavily on our economic model to come up with a sustainable model. Rest came naturally because we are interested in medieval style and RPG games, and that is what our collection is about.

What Makes this project unique?

This is the first project that allows free players in a P2E game and use them to actually create value for initial investors. Our game is open to all and everyone can earn tokens which means there is going to be a great inflation for in-game assets, but the trick is only the NFT holders are allowed to sell these assets. Thus, all these players will need to rent or buy NFTs first to be able to liquidate their earnings.

How Big is the team and what are their roles?

We have a team of 11 1 Founder 2 Front-end devs 3 Back-end devs 2 Designers 3 Game Devs

What is the price?

0.077 ETH

Why is that price fair?

Our holders will be the only people who generate value from our game. Moreover, they will be given tokens in a gasless staking model until our official launch. Thus, they will have already made back their initial investment by the time the game is ready.

What is the Mint Size?

3333

Are there any mechanics we should know about?

NFTs can be used for gasless staking until launch -After the launch; — They can be used for regular staking — They can be used for leasing — They can be used for having guaranteed spots to e-sports tournaments — They can be used for unlocking P2E rewards

While GameFi is bringing many into the crypto space, the value of many newcomers portfolios declining

Many games like Axie Infinity enjoyed parabolic growth followed by catastrophic decline. However, the passion and energy around the GameFi category remains strong and we suspect there will be a breakthrough game released in 2023.
GameFi is a term based on the development of new games that are a combination of “game” and “finance” that has been made possible by blockchain technology. They offer incentives to play the game such as money, rather than paying for it upfront.

In-game rewards (now in the form of blockchain tokens) are often achievable through tasks, battles and game levels. The games that use in-game rewards heavily rely on what designers call a grinding mechanic to provide progression.

The State of GameFi 2022 survey is the first in an ongoing series of yearly reports that offer insight into the shape of the industry. Thanks to all who participated for their thoughts and perspectives.
In June 2022, Chainplay surveyed 2428 investors across the globe on GameFi. What we found did amaze us:
  • 3 in 4 investors worldwide joining crypto because of GameFi. 68% of GameFi investors joined the market less than a year
  • 89% of crypto investors worldwide saw their GameFi profits decrease in the last 6 months with 62% of them losing more than 50% of their profits
  • In 2022, investors worldwide spent an average of 2.5 hours per day participating in GameFi, which is down 43% compared to 2021 (4.4 hours)
  • 73% of the respondents shy away from GameFi investments because they are afraid of rug pulls, Ponzi schemes, and pyramid schemes projects.
  • 81% of GameFi investors prioritize the fun factor over earnings when it comes to future GameFi projects

Can you share the initial ideas for Infinite Fleet and how this project started?

Infinite Fleet is Samson Mow’s dream project. 

We are anime and mecha enthusiasts, inspired by classic 80s anime movies and TV shows. It is a game that aims to drive the adoption of bitcoin to the ever-expanding video game community.

Samson is a luminary in the Bitcoin space. He gained notoriety at the vanguard of the block size war of 2015. After leaving his position as COO of the then leading Bitcoin exchange, BTCC, Samson became Chief Strategy Officer of the most prominent Bitcoin infrastructure company, Blockstream. Recently, he raised 21 million USD to start his Bitcoin layer 2 R&D company, Jan3, promoting the adoption of Bitcoin across nation-states.

Many people do not know that Samson was a veteran game developer before reaching acclaim in Bitcoin! While working at Relic, he worked on Metacritic’s highest-rated strategy game “Company of Heroes” and the fan-favorite Games Workshop video game, “Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War.” He then moved to an executive position at the world-renowned AAA studio Ubisoft to publish their most lucrative Facebook game – Smurfs and Co.

Samson started Pixelmatic in 2011 to build social games. His vision is to innovate the strategy gaming genre by expanding it to millions of players in a procedurally generated universe where players cooperate to thrive. 

The players’ actions rewrite the entire destiny of Infinite Fleet through the directed narrative – a system of nexus events in which the storylines diverge according to the successes or failures of the community. The players who take part in such pivotal moments have their legacies etched into the lore of Infinite Fleet for future generations of gamers to see.

What makes Infinite Fleet especially exciting to their target market?

 

The directed narrative is one of the most exciting and innovative features of Infinite Fleet. One of the main motivations of MMO players is to have volition – to feel that you matter. The directed narrative allows you to make a massive difference in the game.

Our control and camera mechanics are vastly different from other strategy games. In most strategy games, you will take a birds-eye view of your forces and control them on a 2D plane. In Infinite Fleet, you switch between a traditional tactical view and direct control of your capital ship from a third-person perspective. It gives you that cinematic “Star Wars” feel as you battle across binary stars and black holes with hundreds of fleets blasting each other to oblivion.

Many strategy gamers love expanding their bases and territory! We use a procedurally generated system to build millions of star systems. They have planets, moons, asteroid belts, nebulae, and many other cosmic anomalies the players can explore and conquer. Players can build defense platforms, mining installations, outposts, space stations, and more to defend humanity against the alien Atrox menace. 

And, as most of our players are sci-fi enthusiasts, they will be able to configure their fleet to great depth. They will recruit crew members, install weaponry, upgrade systems, and swap out their fleet composition to create the ultimate synergy with their preferred play style.

 

How is Infinite Fleet implementing cryptocurrency and NFTs into their game?

Infinite Fleet is taking a drastically different approach from what you have seen before! 

The promise of play-to-earn games is predicated on digital items becoming more valuable, and that’s the only reason people play them.

They are not fun.

Blockchain games are so focused on investment and the economy that the game is superfluous. Play to earn games will require an investment in their unregulated token to play, not to mention the horrific user experience of navigating various dApps and blockchains.

Infinite Fleet is not a play-to-earn game. But it uses a Bitcoin sidechain to generate its in-game currency, $INF, and our in-game NFT spaceships. We do this for the same reason Bitcoin exists – free trade.

$INF is generated on the Liquid network, and it is earned by players when they participate in the game. That means joining social events such as epic raids and completing complex achievements. You cannot purchase it from us. It can only be earned (for free) by playing. We call this “proof of participation.” It is critical that making $INF is a fun, challenging, and social experience, not a mindless grind.

We also mint our NFT ships on the Liquid network. The NFTs are like keys to your spaceship. The vessel does not sit on the blockchain; It is on our centralized database. The NFT gives you the right to use the ship, and you can trade that wherever you please without our intervention.

You can trade any Liquid assets atomically, meaning that both sides of a transaction must execute simultaneously, or the transaction will fail. So another party cannot steal your goods before fulfilling their end of the transaction. 

However, $INF is not an essential part of Infinite Fleet. It’s an additional feature that we think is exceptionally cool. Still, Infinite Fleet is a great MMO game without the $INF tokens or the NFTs.

 

Many people are excited about Infinite Fleet’s free market approach. Where did this idea and plan come from?

 

It’s a natural evolution for us as gamers and Bitcoiners. We believe in free trade, and as MMO gamers, we have been well acquainted with digital currencies for decades. In fact, in the early naughties, Samson ran a gold mining operation in Lineage 2!

Atomic swaps allow for trustless trade. So, if I were buying some gold in World of Warcraft, which is against the developer’s terms of service, I’d pay some stranger on eBay, and we’d agree to meet someplace on the game. You arrive there, and maybe it takes a little while for that person to arrive. You’ll feel pretty stressed out! Perhaps you just got scammed!

I don’t need to trust the other party with an atomic swap – and that is revolutionary!

It doesn’t matter if you are on a small forum or Telegram group; you know you will get what you ordered before your NFT ship or other assets leave your wallet. It’s a breakthrough for the trading of in-game items. 

 

There are some big players on this team. Why are so many well-known professionals working together on this exciting project?

No other projects are doing what we’re doing by ethically implementing a portable currency into a game. It’s inspiring to people who share our views.

Jason Lee is the Chief Creative Officer. He was previously the Lead Gameplay Designer on Age of Empires 4, one of the biggest IPs in the strategy genre. He also worked on Company of Heroes, the highest-rated strategy game on Metacritic.

Our Director of Art, Wayne Wong Chong, has 20 years of technical art experience. He’s driving our artwork to AAA standard. In fact, under his direction, Artstation featured many of our concept pieces as “top picks.”

Jordan Guinaud is our VP of engineering. He has been building, leading, and managing teams for a decade. He worked with massive companies such as Coca-Cola, Phillips, and TomTom and scaled engineering organizations through their funding phases. 

We also onboarded Vince DiCola, a composer who wrote the soundtrack for the original Transformers 80’s movie and Rocky IV!

 

You have been raising money via STO, why did you decide to do that and who has been taking part?

The question facing companies that want to raise money in this industry is if they wish to go by the regulated or unregulated path. We chose to take the former.

Security Token Offerings (STOs) are a fantastic way to take a legit path for those serious about making a long-term product. 

Infinite Fleet’s public STO is like a mini-IPO and allows all professional and retail investors to access this early-stage opportunity. Traditionally, investing in early-stage businesses is reserved for the “inner circle” of VCs, private equity firms, and Wall Street, never for the general public. With our public STO, everyone will have the opportunity to back the game and become shareholders in the business, no matter what social or income class.

We worked with STOKR to launch our STO in the EU. We raised with over 1000 public investors. 

We have also attracted some visionary investors to this project and smashed through our first funding round. When we launched the project on Simon Dixon’s popular investment platform BnktotheFuture, we cleared over 250 thousand dollars in 24 hours – leading to the oversubscription of the round. We’ve raised 7.8 million to date.

Some of our all-star investors include Charlie Lee, the inventor of Litecoin and a massive influencer in the tech and Bitcoin worlds. Max Keiser is a famous broadcaster and host of the Keiser Report. Phil Potter is the co-founder of Tether and ex-CSO of Bitfinex, one of the world’s largest and most trusted crypto exchanges. Tether has also put in 1 million, and Polyient, a gaming VC firm, invested 500k.

 

You have an exciting STO coming up. Can you share more information about that?

The EXO token represents non-voting equity with profit-sharing from the publisher of Infinite Fleet, Exordium Limited. The token is fully compliant and has an ISIN number in the EU, and is in the process of registering with the SEC (US) via a Reg A+ to allow for public investors.

We are working with Bitifinex, one of the world’s largest exchanges, to be one of the first listings on their new Bitfinex Securities Platform. We are also working on listing the token with INX.

Anyone interested in investing can take a look at the Bitfinex Securities page here.

 

Other than the upcoming STO, what can users expect to see in the future – near and far?

The beta is coming out on July 28th. And we’re very excited about that. There will be some pretty substantial graphical updates, and we’ll be releasing on a regular 2-month cycle with massive content drops. We’re building Infinite Fleet iteratively, so the game will evolve and grow for years to come. Like other prolific MMOs, we intend for Infinite Fleet to last for decades.

However, Infinite Fleet is by no means the end! We are building a publishing platform to launch games from other developers too. We are looking for developers who share a similar ethos about free markets for in-game items. We intend to develop more games and launch them on the platform in the future.

After months of character development, tokenomics, and world design, a London-based mobile game studio officially announces project launch.

Next-generation mobile game studio Block Games, in collaboration with international mobile game studio Estoty, has announced the development of the free-to-play mobile RPG blockchain game Shatterpoint for IOS and Android. 

Founded by gamers, Block Games is bringing player-owned NFT economies to the mainstream. With over 200 million active players, 50+ games, and over 1.5 billion downloads worldwide, Estoty has been spearheading fun and accessible mobile games for years.  

 

GamePlay Matters

Shatterpoint is the first free-to-play, play-to-earn RPG game to combine the gameplay and storytelling of traditional gaming with the economics of blockchain. Inspired by Zelda, Rick and Morty and set in a quirky, and troubled future where wild creatures, menacing robots and the ever present Shatterpoint Effect threaten your survival, players battle across multiple arenas in single-player, head-to-head and multiplayer modes. Excitement and interest are already growing as the space looks for the next title to bridge the gap between traditional and blockchain gaming, a game that will have free2play mechanics at the core of the gameplay 

“We’re really focusing our efforts on creating a great blockchain game, with free-2-play at the core of the gameplay. We aim to make the blockchain side almost invisible, creating a seamless experience for new players whilst empowering the player-owned economy and experienced play-to-earn gamers” –  Ben Baltramiejunas, Block-Game CEO

Free-to-Play

Shatterpoint is seeking to redefine the increasingly pay-to-play philosophy with a more accessible, intuitive and fun free-to-play game. As such, there are no financial barriers to playing Shatterpoint. 

Shatterpoint is about leveling the playing field, about giving a new generation of players – regardless of their crypto balance – the freedom to earn crypto and own NFTs as in-game assets, experience the entertainment of the game and be part of the future of gaming without stumping up a huge sum of money for the privilege.

As Block-Games CEO, Ben Baltramiejunas says,

“By making Shatterpoint free-to-play and free-to-earn we’re introducing new players to the wonder of blockchain gaming. By being mobile-first, we’re opening the doors for millions of gamers who don’t have access to pc.”

Play-to-earn

The combination of action RPG, strategy, a dynamic trading economy, and focused gameplay which rewards skill gives players of Shatterpoint a vast array of playing and earning potential. 

As the game seasons progress, players will be able to explore, earn, trade and battle their way across ever-changing worlds, earning additional rewards and accessing different achievements as they fight to avoid the Shatterpoint Event. They can also earn in-game currency and NFTs through PVE or PVP battle modes. 

In Shatterpoint, players can purchase or rent NFT heroes from other players to participate in PVE and PVP gameplay modes, earning and splitting resources as they battle through increasingly difficult PvE content.

The Global Team Behind Shatterpoint

Creating a play-to-earn mobile game with a riveting story, exciting gameplay and modern tokenomics requires an extensive and experienced team. 

Block Games is a next-generation mobile games studio based out of London, creating virtual game economies driven by player ownership, together with the infrastructure that makes them possible. 

Estoty is an international mobile game studio with over 200 million active players, 50+ games and over 1.5 billion downloads worldwide.

Development for Shatterpoint is already ramping up. Q3 of this year will see the in-game token and NFT sale, followed by Closed Alpha in Q4. Open beta testing will begin early 2023 with the global launch of Shatterpoint in Q2 2023.

The first to introduce roguelite gameplay, collaborative universe, and evolving NFT

7 April 2022 – Video game veterans across Asia, Europe, and North America have come together to reveal a new Web3 franchise. Titled Mythic Protocol, the project brings a unique collaborative approach to worldbuilding, fast-paced roguelite gameplay, and evolving NFTs that can gain new attributes through gameplay. 

The ambitious project has gained the overwhelming support of tech-focused VCs through a multi-million-dollar seed round that’s set to be announced in the coming weeks. 

Mythic Protocol is led by veterans of the video game industry with decades of collective experience working with industry giants both in entertainment (Riot Games, Koei Tecmo, SQEX, HBO, Marvel, DCEU, and more) and tech (Symantec, Microsoft, and Intel, and more). The team is further bolstered by game developers from Indonesia-based Agate, a regional development leader with more than 300 game developers. 

Creating Deeper Gameplay to Elevate the Web3 Gaming Experience 

The idea for the franchise came from a collective lamentation that existing Web3 games offer only the basic extrinsic motivation to earn. The leadership behind Mythic Protocol believes that by implementing a deeper gameplay experience, Mythic Protocol will offer the intrinsic value of

“fun” in addition to the potential to earn and grow – creating a more engaging and rounded experience. 

Arief Widhiyasa, Chief Executive Officer of Mythic Protocol, added, “We believe that to be sustainable, industry players have to balance speed with engaging gameplay elements that the gaming and Web3 communities will appreciate in the long run. We have our eyes set on transforming what the future of Web3 games should look like.” 

In keeping with the team’s measured approach towards Web3, Mythic Protocol’s game genre of choice: the “roguelite ARPG” was carefully selected as a result of deliberate market testing and a comprehensive study of industry trends. 

Roguelite is a video game genre defined by short gameplay sessions and procedurally generated experiences. Within each session, players will encounter randomly generated challenges, power-ups, and maps – all of which contribute towards making each run truly unique. 

The action-RPG elements that are also layered into Mythic Protocol are designed to create brisk, action-packed play-sessions that are paired with long-term progression mechanics. Mythic Protocol’s amalgam of roguelite and ARPG design decisions create a gaming experience that will engage players for a long time along a varied axis of intrinsic and extrinsic motivations.

A Growing Universe Powered by Evolving NFTs and Community Collaboration 

In Mythic Protocol, secret societies protect the world from otherworldly threats. In place of the closed intellectual ecosystems of traditional IPs, the devs draw from Web3’s collaborative nature to grow the universe alongside the community. In keeping with the secret society theme, each potential member has had to tackle a gauntlet of enigmatic case-files (which can take upwards of 150 hours) prior to earning access to the Discord server where like-minded individuals share thoughts and get connected. 

To bring the collaborative universe and roguelite gameplay together, Mythic Protocol makes use of a system called Evolving NFT. As players use their hard-trained secret agents to defeat enemies, the Agent-NFT will continually grow stronger. With the Evolving NFT system, records of legendary agents and their feats will be more easily accessible to be integrated into Mythic Protocol’s lore while feeding the value back to the players that played them. 

To dive and discover the heights and depths of Mythic Protocol, interested players can check out the website, follow Mythic Protocol on Twitter, and join the community for the latest announcements and the opportunity to contribute to the growing world. Early adopters can get insights into the development process, exclusive rewards, and more surprises from the Mythic Protocol team.

IQ Protocol has announced partnerships with Tiny Colony, Gunzilla, Solido Games, Zone of Avoidance, and Solido Games, to support in-game asset rental markets across Polygon, BNB, Solana, and Avalanche.

Following the announcement of their successful $12M raise, IQ Protocol have announced a busy pipeline of GameFi integrations which will allow a peer-to-peer rental market for ingame assets.

These projects join a group of established titles already integrating IQ Protocol’s wrapped NFT rental solution which supports Polygon and BNB with Solana, and Avalanche already in development.

The flurry of announcements indicate the huge potential for the ingame asset rental market with players standing to make passive incomes from their NFTs and enhancing user experience.

IQ Protocol’s platform gives the ability to create wrapped, expirable versions of digital assets, which creates a rental solution that negates risk to the asset owner and requires no collateral from the borrower. Using this infrastructure a player to rent out their NFTs to other players for a pre-arranged amount of time and for an agreed-upon price, thus benefiting both parties involved.

Gaming projects already announced include Chainmyth, Nyan Heroes, Space SIP, Spark Era, Battle Saga, Bitspawn, Zone of Avoidance, BitSpawn, Solcery, Tiny Colony, Gunzilla, Solido Games, and Solido Games which represent a rental market worth $MMs.

These join a fast growing ecosystem building upon both the IQ Protocol fungible token and non-fungible token solutions which includes Esports platforms, SaaS providers, infrastructure solutions, and content platforms.
