Our roadmap for Q3-Q4 2022
Private Space
We will release an essential feature like hanging your NFT on the wall or furnishing your room with free furniture. We still don't have enough budget to pay for a 3d modeler or have enough time to create by ourselves; therefore, we will use the asset we bought in the Unity asset store. Then we will add exclusive OG furniture like the sword and shield in the video below. After we have enough funds, we will create new unique furniture.
Mini-game: Battle arena card
Before developing a battle arena card game, we intend to create a game as a socializing tool for our community while waiting for the virtual world and a real game. Our first idea was a luck-based game where people could guess the result of the battle between two gladiators, but after we got a new co-founder, a board game designer, he pushed our mini-game to a new level. It could be called a board game with an NFT featured now. Though we could not deliver our product as planned, we think the game should be worth waiting for.
We will try to add the AI battle mode, the multiplayer mode then the on-chain mode, which will be the most challenging one. We want to create a game that can live forever even if we do not develop it anymore.
The solution might be putting all the game logic on the blockchain and creating a game client to use as a UI of the game. If everything works as expected, we will try to make it an open-source so that everyone can modify the visual effect, sound, animation, and everything.
The most challenging part is the security of the game's smart contract. We want to add the betting feature and other money involvement mechanics, so we must be careful about this step. The gas fee optimization for each match is also quite challenging.
Therefore to be realistic, it should be more than six months if our human resources and fund are in this state. But the fun part of this game should not happen only after the game is released. We think being able to develop a game together with our community should be fun. We might be able to add some memes or events related to Optimism and Ethereum to our game. We also want to add some signatures of our supporters to the game to make it a game built for the community and leverage the decentralized technology.
The step of our development should be like the this
AI off-chain mode with NFT featured ( beta test )
Multiplayer off-chain mode ( beta test )
AI off-chain mode with NFT or token reward
Multiplayer off-chain mode with NFT or token reward
On-chain mode ( Testnet )
On-chain mode ( Optimism Mainnet )
open-source game client
There might be some changes while we are developing to adapt to the market situation and the community's demand.
Collaborations
We are designing a mechanic to collaborate with other projects on Optimism or Mainnet to promote more detail about our project.
We did want to collaborate in Q1 2022 to promote our project, but since there was a change in our team, we decided to put our resources on the core product development first. We have already been listed on Optimism's official site in the NFT category for months, so the problem with the low number of people who joined our Discord might not be from the PR.
After the mini-game is released, we should attract people to our community organically, then a lot of collaboration will start from that point.
Upgrade our website
We will re-organize the information on our website to help new people see the big picture of our project. Right now, there might be too many platforms where we host our information.
We don't have a dedicated rarity tool on our website. There is only a spreadsheet to check for the rarity score. Since Quixotic has already had this feature and our sale is still very low, we decided to postpone it. But right now, it might be time to put it on our Gladiaxy index.
We want to add more features to anonymize the identity of Gladiaxy's holder. We only have the biography edit for the gladiator, which still hasn't been used widely by our holders. This is a part of the anonymous social system we want to build, so we should start experimenting with some for now.
Some social mini-game could help holders interact with other holders or the community. We still have not figured it out yet, but after the mini-game and private space progress, we will put our resources into this one.
