{"dueDate": "1715468400", "extraInfo": "Other grant info:\nLast year we successfully applied for the Questbook Arbitrum Gaming grant and through the $25,000 of funding and past 5 months, we have built the MOBA version of our game through to alpha and have made a start on the mining gameplay as shown by the video posted above. Grant funding has been crucial for our game development and every dollar is used wisely for maximum impact.\n", "extraLink": "", "projectId": "0xfecdcf6b7c12791707fa55f0d3baf216fadb561a", "objectives": "Pickaxe mining and resource rewards\n\nThis first milestone involves rolling out the infrastructure for our pickaxe NFT mint. This marks the beginning of the economy in Smithonia. The pickaxe will be an ERC-1155 token with three types: wood, iron, and gold. As a pickaxe is upgraded from wood to iron and then to gold, its efficiency increases, and players will earn more resources.\n\nWhen staked, the pickaxes will earn ERC-20 tokens representing the resources in Smithonia. These resources include bone, iron, copper, silver, stone, gold, and primal rocks. These resources will be crucial for the future of the game and will have immediate use cases in weapon upgrading and mine upgrading.\n\nFinally, we have built a fully interactive mining environment for this 'passive' game mode. Players can scroll around their personal mine and stake their pickaxe NFT to a rock deposit to mine that resource token. This mine will feature animated characters, procedurally placed mineral deposits, and a shop where players can upgrade their pickaxe. \n\nProposal for Game Features Enhancement\n\nThis proposal outlines the planned enhancements for the in-game features including the Shop, Upgrading systems, and Pickaxe Upgrading. These enhancements are designed to improve player engagement and game dynamics by allowing more interactive and strategic gameplay.\n\n1. Shop Enhancements:\nThe Shop will introduce a new feature allowing players to trade resources with one another. This trading system will support various resources such as iron, stone, and bone, among others. The ability to trade resources will enable players to strategically acquire needed materials for game progression and engage more deeply with the community.\n\n2. Upgrading Features:\nThe upgrading system will be expanded to include several key infrastructural elements within the game environment:\n\n   a. Stairs Repair:\n   Players will have the ability to repair stairs, which are crucial for navigating different levels within the game. Repairing stairs will grant access to new areas where players can discover additional resources and explore new mine shafts.\n\n   b. Walkways Repair:\n   The repair of walkways will also be introduced as a vital feature. Walkways facilitate movement around mine shafts and are strategic assets in resource allocation and exploration. Players will need to make tactical decisions on whether to prioritize walkway or stair repairs based on their current needs and resource availability.\n\n   c. Mine Shafts Repair:\n   Repairing mine shafts will be another upgrade feature that allows players to access specific types of resources. This feature not only enables players to target particular resources but also increases the chances of finding rare materials, adding an element of excitement and strategy to the game.\n\n3. Pickaxe Upgrading System:\nThe proposal includes an enhancement to the pickaxe upgrading system. Players will be able to upgrade their pickaxes through three levels: wooden, iron, and gold. Each upgrade will double the amount of resources players can extract from each stake, significantly boosting their mining capabilities and efficiency.\n\nConclusion:\nThe proposed enhancements to the Shop, Upgrading systems, and Pickaxe Upgrading are expected to enrich the gameplay experience by adding layers of strategy and player interaction. These features are designed to keep the game environment dynamic and engaging, encouraging players to explore, strategize, and collaborate more effectively.\n\nProof of completion:\nVideo of mining gameplay. \nVideo of previous mining \n", "proposalLink": "https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bMd7F3r8wdjMWL9IUHvdcBZ4NY4TjTmzQe8VuPEvAjE/edit?usp=sharing"}
