Alien Worlds

Overview

Alien Worlds is a decentralized metaverse running primarily on the WAX blockchain but also has connections with the Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain blockchains. At its core, it is a strategic, exploratory, and competitive platform that allows players to earn rewards in the form of Trilium (TLM), the game's native cryptocurrency. By participating in various activities such as mining and completing missions, players can acquire TLM and use it to control competing Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), stake for governance, or purchase NFTs that represent digital land, tools, weapons, and more.

Game Lore

In the year 2055, amidst raging pandemics on Earth, the most advanced bitcoin mining community, known as the Federation, deciphers messages from an advanced alien race hidden within bitcoin's algorithmic complexities. These messages reveal a wormhole, enabling travel to distant, habitable exoplanets. The Federation, armed with a unique supply of the hyper-rare resource Trilium (TLM), ventures through the wormhole, discovering a new interstellar network of planets. Thus begins the saga of Alien Worlds, where virtual and real worlds collide, and everything from avatars to tools and weapons is tokenized within this decentralized metaverse.

Gameplay and Features

The core gameplay of Alien Worlds revolves around mining on various planets. Each player is equipped with NFT-based tools, which are essential for mining Trilium (TLM), the game's native cryptocurrency.  The game offers a range of tools, each with unique attributes affecting mining outcomes. With multiple planets to choose from, players must strategize where to mine based on the planet's characteristics and potential yields.

Players earn TLM and NFTs through mining, competing in missions, and participating in governance via Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) for each planet. The distribution mechanism is designed to gradually decentralize control, empowering players and smaller groups within the community.

Each planet operates as a DAO, where players can stake their TLM to vote for the planet's councilors. Although the full DAO functionality is under development, the intent is to enable communities to self-govern and decide on the distribution of resources and the development of new game features.

Land Ownership 

In Alien Worlds, owning land is a strategic move. Each land plot, an NFT, entitles its owner to a portion of the Trilium (TLM) mined there, creating a source of passive income vital for long-term strategy. Landowners have the power to set commission rates, directly affecting mining activity and earnings. Additionally, since land plots are NFTs, owners can freely trade them on the Open market.

NFTs and Blockchain

Alien Worlds leverages blockchain technology to create a player-driven economy based on NFTs and the TLM token. NFTs in the game represent a wide range of assets, including land, tools, and avatars, each with unique attributes and utilities within the game. These NFTs are tradeable on the  Atomic Hub Marketplace.

How to Get Started

1. Create a Wallet: To begin, players need to create a WAX wallet. This wallet will be used to store TLM and NFTs acquired within the game. Alien Worlds' web browser login also has a built-in feature that leads the player to create a WAX wallet.
2. Acquire a Starter Pack: New players are provided with a starter pack containing a basic avatar and a shovel tool. This kit is essential for starting your mining journey in Alien Worlds.
3. Choose a Planet: The metaverse consists of several planets, each governed by its DAO. Players must choose a planet to start mining TLM.
4. Start Mining: Use your shovel to mine for Trilium on your chosen planet. Mining success and rewards depend on the type of land and tools you possess. Players interested in acquiring more game assets for further game progress might be interested in purchasing tools, lands, and other assets on the Marketplace.
5. Participate in Governance: By staking TLM to a planet, players can become members of that planet's DAO, allowing them to vote on governance issues and influence the planet's development.
