VeChain101 partners with VulcanVerse to support the upcoming blockchain gaming world

VeChain101 partners with VulcanVerse to support the upcoming blockchain gaming world

With the VeChain mainnet recently celebrating two years of uninterrupted active service, the lack of large-scale community gaming options has been a noticeable absence in the ecosystem. Despite many native features that makes VeChain ideal for gaming applications, playable titles have yet to land on the platform. However, 2020 has promises to be different, with a number of titles announced and development already underway.

About the VulcanVerse

One of the more intriguing titles announced has been the VulcanVerse, a 3D lore-filled open world that divides the land up to community owners, allowing them to build structures and play a role in designing the landscape. The land ownership is based on non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that are buyable and tradable, allowing people to have a stake in the gaming world. Unlike other gaming worlds, the VulcanVerse will be accessible from a standalone app, giving the game more powerful graphic and audio capabilities (currently existing worlds are limited to web apps, which focus more around primitive world building and fewer gameplay elements).

Land will be split among four quadrants, each with unique looks, building materials, lore, and creatures. This will create factions within the game, as each region looks to top the leaderboard and win prizes.

Role of the VeChain101 team within the project

As part of the partnership, VeChain101 will assist in media outreach, bringing new players into both the VulcanVerse and VeChain ecosystems. VeChain101 will create a website featuring information, guides, media, and other resources for future players. We will more actively cover the gaming sphere, releasing more news to foster a vibrant gaming culture. We will also play a role as an advisor, giving input on development and design choices to ensure the game is both fun and community-driven. We will serve as a bridge between the community and the various technical development teams that are already building this adventure-filled world.

VeChain101 joins a growing list of capable partners that are committed to launching an engaging and fun blockchain gaming experience. Award winning fantasy writers are creating backstories and lore to add intrigue and suspense to the world, while multiple development teams are building the assets to be used as terrain, characters, and gameplay functions, giving us confidence that the end product will attract players from both inside and outside of the VeChain ecosystem. As always, the goal of VeChain101 is to support the growth of the VeChain ecosystem and community, and we believe this to be an excellent opportunity. Over the next few months, we will assist VulcanVerse in developing content to raise awareness for the product launch.

Introducing Comet’s new decentralized marketplace

This week Totient announced their new p2p marketplace, which allows users to auction or sell their Comet NFTs (non-fungible tokens). Comet, a browser extension that allows users to securely manage their VeChain wallets directly from within Google Chrome or Brave Browser, provides users with a gateway to a world of blockchain-based applications and games.

Users can customize the appearance of their Comet in the Cometverse, as well as chat and trade VeChain tokens with other users. Customization options include a series of bright colors and novelty items.

To date, Comet has announced a series of item giveaways, including novelty hats and eyewear. Some of the rarer items had a limited release, and were completely claimed in a matter of seconds. To the creators of Cometverse, this came as quite a surprise. Totient Co-founder Clinton Bembry talked about how the whole concept was designed to be a demo for the Comet browser extension, but were encouraged to keep developing it by the strong positive feedback.

Bembry continued by stating that they’ve only scratched the surface of how they can continue to improve the user experience. The p2p marketplace is just one of many innovative new features they plan to implement.

While the popularity of the Cometverse may have been unforeseen, the direction Totient is following is much more purposeful. The marketplace is built on a protocol they call Valkyrie. Details haven’t been fully announced, but eventually this protocol will become available for other developers to use within their own dApps when creating an NFT marketplace. This is just another step in Totient’s journey towards making the VeChain blockchain more user-friendly and accessible for developers and users alike.
