Investor & Team： Good funding partners** Introduction** Footium is a new game that allows players to manage football clubs, create teams of players, and compete against each other to win prizes. The game is focused on building the best team imaginable and rising through the leagues to earn the in-game token. The game will use the Footium token within the game to reward winners and for all transactions such as transfers and can also be staked. Clubs with more tokens staked, will have a larger fanbase, and quicker leveling up of the stadium and home game advantages. For example, players have more abilities and coaches to improve their game and tactics. Tokenomic There will be exponentially diminishing returns on tokens staked for benefits within the club so the effect is limited. More information on tokens within the game will be released in a future tokenomics medium article. NFTs 3.1 Basic Setting In Footium, every football player is an NFT with specific attributes, with higher rarity cards performing better in-game. Footium will start with 8 leagues structured in a funnel fashion, similar to the English Conference. Each league will contain 12 clubs, with the bottom 3 being relegated each season, and 3 clubs coming up from the two leagues below (top 1/2 clubs from each league, with a playoff deciding the 3rd place). To fill these leagues there will be a total of 3060 clubs. Each club will have a generative squad， a fanbase, club kits, history, an academy, and a stadium.(1) A Squad You’ll get 20 players with your club when the game starts and then 10 new players every season. You don’t have to continually buy new NFTs to keep your team full. While there is going to be a player-to-player market for new players, the Academy within your football club will also generate players each season. (2) Club BadgeThe badge will be based on a number of traits, the rarity of which will determine their starting league once the game is released as well as the stadium size. 144 clubs will be reserved for a variety of uses, including giveaways, creating a community fund and for Footium team members and advisors (present and future). The club badge determines the rarity and size of your club. A rare badge will start in the higher leagues. The top tier league has 12 clubs, division 2 has 24, followed by 48 and so on. During this NFT sale they will sell enough club NFTs to fill 8 leagues. (3) KitsEach club will have three kits, and they will be displayed on different occasions, which may also be a preference factor when choosing a club. (4) Stadium Different NFTs will also have a corresponding stadium size, which also affects the development of a club. Often, the rarer the NFT, the larger the stadium. (5) AcademyAlongside the 20 players of varying quality and age that come with your club at launch every Footium Club has its own academy that generates 10 new prospects every season. These academies will have a crucial role in how a Footium Club owner will navigate the game. NTFs Play-to-earn The game will use the Footium token within the game to reward winners and for all transactions such as transfers and can also be staked. Clubs with more tokens staked, will have a larger fanbase, and quicker leveling up of the stadium and home game advantages. For example, players have more abilities and coaches to improve their game and tactics. Another core aspect of the game includes the transfer market. This is where you can buy and trade players from which you can make profits or reinvest wisely. Within the gameplay itself, you need to employ the correct tactics to outplay your opponent and create off-field morale that keeps the whole club behind the team. Market Presence The club mint of 3060 fully sold out back in November 2021, however, there are clubs available on the secondary market. On Raible, the Club NFTs that can be purchased are basically in Division 8, and in the past 30 days, the floor price has shown a gradual upward trend. Compared with the game's mint price of 0.05 ETH, the floor price and sold price now have increased by 4-5 times, and the current trend is that the game's NFT price will increase after its official launch of the gameplay. So it is worth waiting.Looking at its sales data, the game's NFT is also currently doing normal in the secondary market, only achieving a volume of only 32.64 ETH in the last 30 days.Community The size of the game's community is currently in its initial stages of formation. The game's operations team will be holding some giveaway events on Twitter, as well as releasing some NFT auctions. With 3.26k members on Discord, the game will hold occasional AMAs and Q&As on Discord to answer players' questions and post new developments. But overall, the growth of community members is relatively slow, but we can stay tuned. Team and Investors of The GameThe founders of the game are Jordan Lord and James O'Leary.Jordan is a full-stack developer with blockchain development experience, as well as previously being a game developer for Multiverse Inc during a work placement that saw him work in Shenzhen, China.Having graduated with a First Class in Computer Science from the University of Bristol, Jordan went on to work as a Software Engineer at Netcraft, a large cyber security firm, while he developed Footium in his spare time. James is an Economist with a passion for gaming.he has also been focusing on the game economics within Footium to ensure a rewarding experience for players. Alongside his studies, James became a Blockchain Lecturer at the Oxford Foundry whilst also being the Co-President of the Oxford Blockchain Society. In terms of the funding of the game, they have raised a $3.35m Seed Round to continue building the metaverse world of Football.Investors include Backed VC, Animoca Brands, Stride.VC and Entrée Capital, along with a number of gaming guilds. Angel investment from Chris Smalling (Ex-Manchester United and England International Football Player), Ahmed Al-Balaghi (Co-Founder of Biconomy) and SOLBigBrain (Big Brain Holdings) “Blockchain is pioneering an economic revolution in gaming by enabling gamers to participate in the economics of the games they love,” Pascal Suhrcke, an investor at BACKED, said in an official release. “Instead of spending hours grinding in single-player mode for locked, in-game rewards, Footium has built a truly multiplayer experience, in which players can realize true digital ownership and capture a fair share of economic value for their in-game achievements.” Summary In general, the game setting and NFT setting is a new and attractive attempt, which is certain that many people will like it, but looking back at the two years from the game's establishment, the game's development is a kind slow in terms of market and community performance.
