LAUNCHING THE CHIATCG
Richard Tsao, Chief Metaverse Officer - May 04, 2023
The Chia Trading Card Game (ChiaTCG) is an open-source, proof-of-concept Web3
game that serves as a reference product to support adoption among game
developers and jumpstart their journey using Chia technology. It demonstrates
how each of the Chia primitives come together to build the technology
infrastructure for our CODE framework.
The ChiaTCG
With the open-source project, the Chia community (and those beyond!) can now
make their own NFT-based games and showcase how digital ownership across
multiple games works for both creators and players. We believe this is the next
evolution of the digital economy creators and players want.
We’re not stopping there, though. With a vibrant set of Chia-based Web3 TCG
games, we’re approaching game developers with your games, showing how our
technology works and provides value to gamers. We believe the CODE framework
meets the needs of the users and can become the underlying infrastructure for
many established online games and for the future of video game development.
WHY TCGS?
Trading Card Games (TCG) is a popular genre in gaming, and we chose it as our
first target to showcase one of Chia’s greatest strengths: Offers. Most online
TCGs don’t allow digital ownership or trading through restrictive Terms of
Services and End User License Agreements. The few NFT-driven TCGs allow buying
and selling of cards, but only on centralized marketplaces. We want to put
trading back into online TCGs with true ownership and Peer to Peer (P2P) trading
for online TCGs. This is the expected behavior and a bare minimum feature for
people who play physical TCGs.
The TCG genre eliminates a key challenge in gaming interoperability, how more
complex visual assets can be used between games. By focusing on 2D art, standard
interoperability already exists via standardized formats; e.g. JPEG.
Additionally, this enables us to use all NFTs in the current Chia ecosystem
easily for the proof of concept.
HOW CAN I PLAY THE GAME?
The game will be available to the public as an open beta on May 18, 10:00 AM PDT
(5:00 PM UTC).
As a Web3 project, we wanted to provide a set of community activities before the
game is released to the public. So we have the following plans for different
parts of the Chia community:
* NFT collectors: If you already own Chia NFTs, you can see how powerful your
NFT will be in ChiaTCG with our Appraiser tool. You can access it via the
main game website and run it against your XCH wallet address or DID.
Alternatively, you can visit some of the most popular Chia NFT or Blockchain
explorers as well. Collectors who own at least 6 NFTs will have access to our
open beta.
* Chia community: Anyone that has a Chia wallet and a DID will have an
opportunity to vote on the final project name. Given this is a proof of
concept that we’ll be showing off to real potential partners, we’ve vetted
three names with our legal team: ChiaVerse, ChiaFrenzy, and ChiaMania. Voting
can be found here.
WHO WAS INVOLVED WITH CHIATCG?
While we outlined the area we wanted to work within, the ChiaTCG game and
ecosystem are primarily community driven and we want to celebrate the
contributions from everyone!
* Kalt Solutions – Developed the core ChiaTCG game
* MintGarden – ChiaTCG appraiser view on their NFT explorer
* SpaceScan.io – ChiaTCG appraiser view on their blockchain explorer
* Farmers Market – ChiaTCG appraiser view on their NFT explorer
* SumSet Tech – Built a proof of concept TCG (Decentralized Dominion). They
provide consulting and development services to help creators adopt the CODE
framework
* Crew of Eight – Provided assets from their game in development
* Heroes of Quantum – Developed one of the first proof of concept games using
Chia blockchain and plans to continue work on their project with the CODE
framework
* Monkeyzoo – Creating a trading card game that will use Chia’s new NFT
technology to allow upgradable and downgradable digital assets
* Pawket – Building a proof of concept TCG called Cats’ Castle Confrontation
* chiaSWARM.ai – Building tools for creators to effortlessly import and
generate TCG assets using a decentralized pool of GPU workers who are paid in
XCH
* Offerpool.io – Created a Chia DID-based polling for the community to vote on
the final name for ChiaTCG
BUT WHY IS THE GAME CHIA BRANDED?
We partnered with Kalt Solutions to develop the open-source reference game and
paid for the right to brand the project to ensure ChiaTCG is available for at
least 12 months for live demos.
WHAT’S OUR RELEASE SCHEDULE?
Like all other Web3 native games, ChiaTCG is a living community-driven project,
you can get updated news on our ChiaTCG site and actively engage with the
community on Discord.
We’re excited to see everyone engage with ChiaTCG, and can’t wait to see all the
new types of games the community will build in the coming months!
