# The WASD Weekly: 8/9/24

By [WASD](https://paragraph.com/@wasdmedia) · 2024-08-09

---

Gm!

It’s been a big week for onchain gaming.

*   Cartridge and Duper each announced major raises, raking in $7.5M and $8.7M, respectively.
    
*   There were several key infrastructure announcements, including the release of MUD v2.1 and the reveal of Tonk’s Speakeasy, a private onchain messaging system.
    
*   For The Kingdom and Kamigotchi released new updates, while JC won Force Prime Grand Season III and brought WASD its second-ever guild championship.
    

Overall, it’s been an incredibly exciting few days for the ecosystem.

After a “July lull” with a few new game releases and major announcements (and in spite of market nuking) the space has its mojo again.

I’m giga-bullish on the final months of 2024 and expect many more fundraising announcements, infra releases, and (most importantly) fun new games to play.

**🎮 What We’re Playing:**
--------------------------

_An update on what our guild’s been up to this week._

### **Force Prime**

As I mentioned above, this week was headlined by [JC](https://x.com/letaljc) winning Grand Season III of [Force Prime Heroes](https://x.com/ForcePrime_io).

![GG](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/f249b28c794f1851f506cd5cc3efc4965082d217e543558829deeb7de2c830dd.png)

GG

Grand Season III was a multi-week event for the strategy game, where players could complete campaign maps and compete against each other in tournaments to earn season points.

JC emerged from this onchain gauntlet with a decisive victory, earning 4920 season points, 900 more than the second-place finisher.

This is another title in a legendary run, as he also won Grand Seasons I and II.

Congratulations to JC on the three-peat and for bringing home WASD’s second guild championship. I can’t wait to see if he’ll make it four in a row in season IV!

### **Primodium**

[Primodium](https://x.com/primodiumgame) v0.11.1 is now in the books.

While we didn’t repeat after our v0.11 championship, we nonetheless had another strong showing, finishing as the 2nd highest scoring alliance.

I especially want to shoutout [Canzi](https://x.com/514Defi), [Samurai6](https://x.com/PoolPartyNodes), [Jota](https://x.com/pedraoeth), oVerMillion, and [Jack Longarzo](https://x.com/JackLongarzo) who put in incredible performances, with each slotting in the Top 20 in Primodium scored!

As I mentioned last week, this round was considered a “building round” for WASD.

We released our first sponsored plugin, [Andromeda](https://command-center-gules.vercel.app/), built by [Duck](https://x.com/GaonukRodrigo).

It offers public alliance data dashboards and a quest system and is the first of many cool plugins that we’ll be shipping.

All in all, I’m hyped for v0.12 (wen wen wen) and can’t wait for more fierce Primodium competition!

**🕹️Game Spotlight: For The Kingdom**
--------------------------------------

### **Game Overview:**

![Me exploring the lands of Sunscar.](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/4521f6115545c988f4d9f22631826f931ef3d48bf84dc8fe8e09842c6ba93cbf.png)

Me exploring the lands of Sunscar.

[For The Kingdom](https://x.com/4thekingdom_xyz) is an MMORPG built using MUD.

In the game, you’ll complete quests, mine resources, craft items, fight monsters, and battle other players in PvP combat.

To get started, you’ll join and explore one of four different kingdoms (Sylvanreach, Mysthaven, Everfrost, and Sunscar). Each kingdom has its own lore, backstory, and primary resources that it holds.

(Many WASD players have joined Sunscar, fwiw)

After you select a kingdom, you’ll then be able to start questing, earning XP, and leveling up your character.

For The Kingdom is live and playable today, as the team is holding a public playtest on the Redstone Garnet testnet.

### **The WASD Take:**

![My hero getting smacked by a Pyropuru (I wound up killing it LFG)](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/a59497fdf9d9e5c8718bfbe9a727a6d0eab9f8712b2db30aae29a177c7da64ea.png)

My hero getting smacked by a Pyropuru (I wound up killing it LFG)

For The Kingdom has a lot of potential.

The core gameplay is engaging and fun despite being a playtest. I’m a picky gamer and churn quickly through new games, but I’ve been playing For the Kingdom throughout the week.

That said, the mechanics of questing, combat, etc., are all early in their development process and could use more refinement.

Beyond gameplay, For The Kingdom's graphics stand out.

The game looks polished, and I really like the art style. Colors pop off the screen, which helps immerse me in the game while enhancing the overall experience.

The team has also done a great job answering questions and responding to player feedback.

All in all, I’m very bullish on For the Kingdom and excited to keep playing!
