Hi everyone, a new universe is born!
A new instance of Conquest.eth, our persistent game of diplomacy, has been launched on Gnosis chain!
Note that the game is playable on phone but web3 mobile wallet are not always great. We lightly tested Coinbase, Trust and Metamask.
As we mentioned in our last devlog, this is re-release of our previous edition but we improved upon it in several way.
We now use our new tool (FUZD) to auto-reveal the fleets without you needing to think about it. A much nicer experience than the previous agent where you had to register and top-up your account.
We also now enabled multi-staking that allow you to stake on multiple planets at once. Much easier and safer to establish your empire.
Furthermore we removed the mint step and you can simply stake with xdai directly.
previous winners can now claim some part of the tokens they are entitled to. The only caveats is that the token being given cannot be converted to xdai until it remains in game for 6 days + exit time (3 days).
Also, remember that the game start with a special "1 month session" that will allow player to exit immediately at the end of it. They will have one day to do so. The "1 month session" ends on Wednesday, 5 March 2025 at 10:00 UTC and the Infinity Version starts on Thursday 6 March 2025 at 10:00 UTC. Between these 2 time, is a period of instant exits.
Since last announcement we also got new sponsors! The total prize pool is now $3300!
Our friend at Infinite Seas, who are building a cool maritime game with trading as its core are giving out $500 that will be distributed on their planets. Thanks!
Thanks also to Cafe Cosmos, who are building a "Restaurant City- like game with game theory mechanics. They are giving out $100 that will be distribute similarly.
To recap, we will have the following planets
Soccerverse: 500$ worth of Soccerverse clubs distributed on 5 to 10 planets
Infinite Seas: 500$ distributed on various planets
Blocksckout: 200$ distributed on various planets
Cafe Cosmos: 100$ planets distributed on various planets
You'll need to either hold them until Wednesday, 5 March 2025 at 10:00 UTC or exit them successfully.
As mentioned in last devlog, Blocksckout is partnering with us. Not only do they give 200$ distributed on their planets, they also setup a campaign for Conquest so player can gather Merits points.
This is how it will work
Player have 2 main tasks:
stake on planets
conquer other players' active planet
The counting start today and every week on Tuesday we will reward player based on their task completion that week and they will get a proportion of Merits points equal to their standing.
Note that planet stakes will be measured in term of stake amount, not in number of planet, so bigger planets will gather more points
Planet captures will also be measured in term of stake, so the bigger planet you capture the bigger the points.
We do not have the exact number yet but the idea is:
you get some points for each $ staked on a planet
And get even more points for each $ stake of planet captured from other players
Then we will also reward merits point, on top of the $ prize for each Blockscout planet successfully exited or held until the end.
We have also been working on something new, first of its kind type of thing and we can't wait to release it in the next few days. Here is a little tease on twitter.
We have also started working on a daydreams agent for Conquest but did not find the time to finish. If you are interested to help, reach out as we can hopefully get funding for this.
Conquest with its very simple design is a great match for agent like this and can't wait to see it in action.
Remember that conquest is fully extensible and you can play in very different ways. While you'll probably want to conquer the universe, in the past, players have played different roles, like selling their spaceships and avoiding conflict or clustering in alliances.
And if you know how to develop a smart contract, the sky is the limit. The spaceships market place is one example but you might want to think of more possibilities, especially with the unique alliance system that Conquest.eth have. Every alliance can have its own membership rules for example. But anything is possible.
We would love to see what you have in mind and would love to help.
So reach out on our discord and share your thoughts.
Thanks
Best of luck!
