Project Description
Sunflower Land (previously Sunflower Farmers) was the simple farming & crafting game which went viral over the course of 2 weeks. Players could plant crops, chop wood, mine gold and much more to gather the materials needed to craft NFTs.
We went from 100 daily players to over 50,000 and 350K Blockchain accounts.
The game was not perfect, and unfortunately it was abused by bots. We learnt a lot of lessons from our original design and have a solid implementation with off-chain data to improve the scalability and gas fee efficiency.
Our new project, Sunflower Land reaches further than the constraints of Farming. The open source community is building a MetaVerse where content creators can release their own NFTs and eventually gameplay mechanics.
We believe the MetaVerse should be shaped by the players and that is our vision we aim to achieve.
Our Discord community of 60K is patiently waiting for the release of Sunflower Land to begin exploring and building their empire.
Amount Requested
Original: 100,000 USD
Revised: 8000 USD
Milestones
Marketing is not a concern right now, our focus is on designing and building the scalable infrastructure to support the game. We already have a working front-end, game design and community ready to go!
Milestone 1 (100K) - Off-chain data, verification and anti-bot filtering. Includes resources for cloud solution architect, infrastructure costs and solidity developer/audits. 2-3 months - 50K up-front, 50K TVL until game is launched (to cover infrastructure costs)
Milestone 2 (500K approx.) - Platform to launch your own in game NFTs and features. Includes formation of legal and marketing team.
Next milestones (To determine budget).
