BFG Development Update - April

Time flies when you’re developing the best MOBA Play-and-Earn game in the crypto space.

A lot has happened since the last update, and it’s time to reveal which ecosystem we’ll use, plus a few surprises. Read until the end to make sure you don’t miss anything. Let’s dive in!

Design

In the last update, we revealed what the dragon Gio would look like in 2D. Check out what he looks like now:

Apart from Gio, the design team worked incredibly hard to transition multiple game elements from their initial sketches to working prototypes. Bushes, trees, rocks, water, and grass all fall into this category, and here are a few of the final designs:

Now, are you ready for the first surprise of the update?

Two more heroes have been finished, and we’re going to reveal one of them now!

Introducing Gurluk:  

   

From the wizard branch, we have the infamous Gurluk. Once a succoring creature that traveled around the world and liberated villages in the fickle weather time, giving everything back to its people and never wanting anything in return, but to be recognized as their wizard. They say it was his infinite desire to be the best wizard that made him act mad. Once he got the recognition he wanted, the ego did its part. Everything had a pace until he found out about the power of the Giostone. The idea that something with a power like that existed in the same world as he made him fight the Battle for Giostone.

The next hero will be revealed in a couple of days!

Gameplay

The dev team completed working versions of 15 abilities. Since the gameplay mechanics were already complete, the team focused on identifying bugs and solving them to ensure they didn’t happen in the game overall. Now, we can play an entire match without any lags, FPS drops, or glitches. The imported 3D hero models and the map elements have been integrated seamlessly.

Community

During the past month, we organized two events. The first one was an art contest to try and increase the interaction between our internal team and the community. We expected more submissions but we only got 4. We will do our best to motivate the community to make more art in the future.

The second one was an experience contest happening inside our Discord. The most active players received rewards. Pay attention to our channels because we had a lot of fun talking to our community. These contests are a way for us to throw the ball in your corner and tell us what you want to see in the future.

Our Discord and Twitter numbers are increasing with time. Slowly but steadily, we’re getting the traction and hype to become the go-to MOBA game in the cryptosphere.

Economics

Battle For Giostone will be built on the Avalanche ecosystem. We believe Avalanche is the future of the play-and-earn gaming world. There are three reasons why we chose it. First, it’s the best choice when it comes to scalability options. Secondly, the network is fast, which ensures that all transactions will be processed with lightning speed. However, we’re still debating whether to build a platform on top of AVAX or use an already existing one.

The BFG token is ready to deploy, and we’re very close to the final tokenomics model. Just like you, we’re waiting for the right time to organize the public launch.

The seed round funding is almost over, which means that we’ll also reveal the partnerships we’ve secured during this period. Some of them will blow your minds! 

Forum

The Forum has been completed, and you can expect to see it on the website at any moment. When it gets released, there will be information on how you can secure a whitelist position.

For now, we’re only going to say that the people who are the most active in the Discord and the Forum will get whitelist spots. We’ll release more info soon.

Special surprise

There’s no end to the surprises in this dev update! The Forum can be connected to your wallet, and you can put NFTs as profile pictures. In the future, we’re going to issue out BFG hero NFTs that will be used as profile pictures. Pretty cool, right?

Roadmap

So far, so good! The entire development and design aspects are ahead of schedule. Now, we’re working on shareable content, and we’re securing creators to ensure that everything we release gets broadcasted to the entire crypto space.

Follow us on our social media channels to see whenever we release a new update. It’s almost time for the gaming world to experience a true play-and-earn MOBA game!

Disclaimer: This developer update shouldn’t be considered financial advice. Battle For Giostone is still under heavy development. All of the expected roadmap goals are subject to change based on feedback, community interaction, and development priorities.
