5 Key Tenants

1. Products built to be evergreen – to last many decades

 2. Social is in their blood. They want everything to have a deep social component.

 3.  The ability to know how to build a deep world – a world, a theme play, a play ground.

 4. Web 3 is to make everything we build better. Leveraging everything they can. They want a true Web 3 experience, not a Web 2 experience labelled web 3. True player and owner agency to help/ Interoperability – Opening champions to everyone.

 5. Utility - Web 3 games, PFP projects, deep rich entertainment experience, and actually something to do with your NFTs.

Aber Whitcomb

·        Game is being designed to handle millions of players

·        Many interfaces directly with blockchain

·        Originally launched on Ethereum but this is not a chain that can operate a game at scale. Need another chain with low gas and fast transaction speed.

·        Champions will be on a private EVM compatible chain controlled by Jam City.

·        Bridges will in place to bring assets in and out of the game.

·        Contracts for game chain will operate the same on Ethereum.

·        Block Explorer – You will be able to see the blocks that go through on the chain.

·        EVM Compatible chain. Full bridging in and out to Ethereum main net.

·        Payment rails to make it easy for new players to access the game in custodial wallets.

·        Staking

o  Need fungible tokens

o  Need DAO governance to organize and distribute the tokens.

o  Staking will be delayed until this can happen.

o  4 Elements

§  Weapons – Damage with no particular effects (basic weapons)

§  Family – Gameplay element, possibly passive

·        Example – whisperers may be more mobile

§  Essence - Ultimate move is tied to Essence. Fury of the Titans.

§  Parts – Parts do around medium damage but have strong effects

·        Life Horns will cause your character to smash his head against the opponent, their soul will jump out of their body and they will have to run back to their body to regain control

·        Death Fangs cause a damage over time, last tic of damage blinds the enemy for a few seconds

·        These are the types of effects we can expect to see

·        Breeding

o   Each champion has a genome. Expressed trait. Also a recessive gene, unseen traits that are unseen but can potentially be passed on.

o   Large chance for parent dominant parts. Small chance for recessive parts.

o   When breeding system chooses recessive gene, there is a small chance of a mutation occurring – possibility to have nothing to do with either parent.

o   Pure parts have an increased chance of passing on genes of the same Essence to their offspring
