RECAP AMA EPID COMMUNITY X PUFFVERSE

🕖AMA Timing : 12th January 2 PM UTC | 9 PM (GMT +7)
🏚Venue For AMA: @EPID_Community
💰Reward Pool : 100$

➡️Part 1: Project Introduction.
1. First off, let’s start with a brief introduction of Puffverse, shall we?
A:
Sure. I’m glad to see all the future Puffs gathering here through Web 3. This is exactly what we are trying to do, to build a Disney-like dreamland of the 3D metaverse that aims to connect virtuality in Web 3 and reality in Web 2. We have an amazing and mature development team as well as solid backers to provide us with engine and game-building support, we also have a great community here at the very beginning. To bring you into the Puffverse, you have to know that we have unique storylines and extraordinary characters with different personalities. Web 3.0, DeFi, and SocialFi are our goals.
Puffverse is a multi-end interactive universe with characters as NFT assets, allowing players to experience different content in different scenarios using their characters. Users can use their characters as NFT assets to experience different content in different scenarios. They can collect multiple characters with unique and diverse costumes, various characteristics, skills, bonuses, and more. We are not a GameFi project, but we contain 4 main products which are PuffGo (Royale party game like Fall Guys), PuffTown (Simulation game and also wallet integration and web 3 control panel to control all 3 products), PuffLand (UGC for game design, no coding needed), PuffWorld (UGC for metaverse building, no coding needed), Passcard (SocialFi), etc.

So, it’s never too late to join Puffverse, especially since we are now in quite an early phase!

2. You’ve recently been selected as the BNB Chain Grants winner! Tell us about it.
A:
We are excited to announce that we got incubation grants from BNB Chain and the invitation to deploy on BNB Chain, we will be deploying our main products and assets on BNB Chain, the best-performing decentralized economy, which means we are ready for massive user access and a fully functional ecosystem.

BNB Chain (Originally Binance Smart Chain - BSC) supports the most popular programming languages and flexible tools and comes with clear and canonical documentation. With its best EVM compatibility, minor adjustments will be made by the team with the original contracts and codes, and then you could enjoy the cheaper gas fee as well as a faster transaction speed. As you may know, a metaverse and Web 3 gaming project require high frequency in on-chain integration which creates a barrier if the gas fee is high and will reduce the potential user amount. The massive user base and strong ecosystem can provide Puffverse with a better environment to attract users from both Web 3 and Web 2.

Ethereum has always been a great place for NFTs to be launched and promoted, however, when it comes to chain integration, not many can suffer the cost of high-frequency interactions. Our original plan was to build our Genesis NFT first on Ethereum and search for the best chain to deploy our products. When we heard of the BNB Chain Builder Grant, we knew that it was the best choice for us. It brings blockchain’s best resources, training, and connections to startups and provides long-term growth support.

A strong team with solid products needs an outstanding ecosystem to grow and BUILD together. It’s time for Puffverse to BUILD on BNB Chain.

3. That’s great news!! Collaboration with a great ecosystem is a WIN-WIN for your project and the chain.
Puffgo beta version was a huge success and I heard all users are super satisfied playing it. Could you briefly talk about the summary of the PuffGo Beta version with us?
A:
I bet everyone was just like that! I saw many players playing all day and all night for a higher rank, and sometimes we even think these accounts were cheating, but after all the checks, they are not, they are just hardworking. So, salute for all the plays and excellent skills!

I know it’s hard to kick the balls at the beginning, and someone tried to get more balls in by matching with their own teams, but these were all ruled out, unfortunately. We encourage all the great plays but never tolerate the cheats.

As you all know, PuffGo Beta version is only for test purposes, and we had strict rules of cheat checks. Believe it or not, the official version is gonna be more strict, because regular players’ interests can not be harmed like this, especially when there’s token related.

The reason we have such strict rules is that we are not a play-to-earn game, but a skill-to-earn game. We don’t like play to earn because it will only benefit the early birds, but of course early birds deserves more benefits while not driving new users away. Players who get into the game later should also be beneficial. That’s why, during the official version, we will have a seasonal rank (about 14 days, not yet decided), instead of giving out tokens every game. This is the point of skill to earn, and is the point of making it balance for all-time players.

4. Excellent! We heard something about the official version of PuffGo, what’s more about it? Considering many users have been waiting for that.
A:
Let’s see, other than those rules, the main difference in the Official PuffGo is the account. Now that you know you can get 1 test account from 1 NFT, which is pretty inconvenient sometimes, right? In the Official PuffGo, your address will be your account which means you can register the game accounts using emails and so on, and bind an address related to it for the assets control.
It means all the NFTs in your assets can be used to play the game. When you want to play the game, simply use that account to log in and it will load your NFTs. When you need to transfer your NFTs and tokens, swap your tokens, buy more tokens, or get rewards, you all need to do it in the PuffTown App. Many of the users might know that PuffTown V1 is a simulation game, the reason we say it’s V1 is that PuffTown will be an App for an assets control panel in Puffverse, instead of just being a simulation game. Of course, the simulation game will be inside of the App at that time. Overall, that’s a good and easier way to manage your assets and play games using different NFTs. Hold more, and you will get more.
Other than the account, there will be around 10 different game modes at the initial launch. Other than the 5 existing ones, you will experience more modes in the official version. In total, we have 30+ modes, and it will be released one by one.

5. That’s exactly what we want, a better account system. And wow, 30+ modes are exciting. I’m glad you mentioned PuffTown, and before we talk about the real PuffTown, let’s introduce PuffTown V1 to our audiences today, since it’s your second main product to launch.
A:
Playing PuffGo consumes a lot of time, and you basically have to play it all day long for the ranks. PuffTown is relatively less time-consuming, because it is a simulation Idle game, and it means you only need to place your NFTs in the adventure and wait for the result.

We figured it’s better to have this kind of game in the holiday season, cuz people just don’t wanna move at the end of the year. Let me break the PuffTown V1 into pieces for you all, so that you will know what to do on Sunday.
First off, the main part to earn Coins and Diamonds is through Adventure.

You will choose to join the adventure, and the adventures will refresh every time you refresh. Let’s take the first one for example.

When you enter the first adventure, you will see something like this, along with all your NFTs in the wallet down below. There are 3 kinds of NFTs here, the golden yellow one stands for PuffGenesis, the bronze one stands for Puff Football, and they are all Characters with a relatively high luck value. The purple one is Puff Classic, we normally use it to raise Puff Genesis and Puff Football, which means it is the food of those 2 NFTs.
The first step you need is to choose an NFT to start the adventure, and kindly wait for the result. Different adventures require different time periods, some are 1h, some are 4h, and some are 12h or longer. But of course, the longer it takes, the higher reward it has.
The adventure has recommended levels and sometimes has recommended characters, if you meet all the requirements, your win rate will be high. If not, it’s gonna be low. And if it’s really low, there won’t be Coins or Diamonds after the adventure, but you do still get experience.

This is the reward list of the first easy adventure, we will rate you a rank after you finish the adventure and give you certain rewards.

6. So basically, I will get Coins & Diamonds in my address, what other rewards can I get by playing Pufftown v1? Also what are the use cases for those rewards?
A:
Exactly, Coins & Diamonds for your address, and Experience for the NFT you used. Other than this, you might get extra rewards by chance. You might get Treasure Chests, and it requires a certain period of time to open it. If you want to speed it up, you can use your coins to do so. But be careful, because there might be empty ones. The chests will also give you more Coins and Diamonds.
You can have 4 Treasure Chests at the same time. There are 5 types of Treasure Chests: Normal Chest, Excellent Chest, Rare Chest, Legendary Chest, and Ancient Chest. Different chests require different times for opening. You can use Coins to speed up the process. But be careful! There might be empty chests!

You can use them to level up and raise your NFTs.

Each character starts at level 1, up to a maximum level of 30. When a player participates in an adventure with a character, the character who participates in the match gains experience at the end of the adventure. When the character has accumulated enough experience, players can click the ‘Upgrade’ button and consume a certain amount of coins to level-up the character. After leveling up, the character's power will be increased, and the character's experience will be re-accumulated until the character reaches the maximum level of 30.

Each character starts at 1 star and can have a maximum of 5 stars. When a character reaches level 20, the character can be Raised. Players need to select multiple Puff Classic NFTs with the same stars as the resources to raise. After consuming a certain amount of Diamonds, the Puff Classic NFTs as resources will be destroyed, and the character will be raised by one star. The character's Power will increase greatly after every raise, and the character will not be able to continue raising after it reaches full stars.

As I mentioned before, Puff Classic NFTs can be obtained by hatching eggs, and the initial eggs can be obtained by airdrop.

Attention here!

Each Puff Genesis is awarded 2-5 eggs according to the rating, and each Puff Football is awarded 1 egg at the time of the PuffTown V1 launch (Sunday Dec 25 it is). If the Puff Football NFT is minted after the launch, 1 egg will be awarded after the mint.

At last, you will be able to use Diamonds to exchange for points, 1 Diamond can get you 10 points. This point is the same as your PuffGo Beta points, for the redemption of the initial tokens. The unused Diamonds will be automatically exchanged to points before the initial launch.

7. What is the most important information we need to know before entering Pufftown?
A:
First of all, use only Puff Classic for Raise. They will be burnt after use. As you can see, this requires a lot of Puff Classics. The Eggs we airdropped to Genesis and Football holders might not be enough if you all want to Raise the NFT. So there might be other ways to get more Puff Classic, please stay tuned.

After the raise, the power will increase a lot, much more than the level-up. So, in order to get more coins and diamonds in the high-level adventure, it is recommended to Raise your NFTs.

Secondly, Each character has three attributes: Power, Vitality, and Luck. Among them, the Luck Value is determined and unchangeable with the initial release of the character, while the Power and Vitality have an initial value that is given at the initial release but can be changed along the way. The three attributes are effective in-game in the following ways respectively:
Power
Power determines how well you can be in an adventure and the rank of a character in the adventure. A character's Power can be increased through Level Up and Raise.
Vitality
Vitality affects the profit of the game. When the Vitality is lower than a certain percentage, the profit will be lost. Every time players use a character to join an adventure, the Vitality of the participating character will be reduced. Players can use Coins to restore the Vitality of the character.
Luck Value
Luck Value will add bonuses to the game rewards, and increase the drop rate of the treasure chest. The higher the Luck Value, the greater the drop rate of the treasure chest.

These are all important. Now, you know that it’s time to get the high-luck-value Puff Genesis and Puff NFTs.

Speaking of which, remember that the 8 teams of Puff Football have increased luck values, that’s definitely something to chase for.

8. Can’t wait to play Pufftown! Let me sum it up, you need to have Puff Genesis or Puff Football NFT to join the adventure and get EXP, Coins, and Diamonds, and level up & raise your NFTs to get more for the initial tokens, correct?
A:
100%. The first step is definitely to get an NFT. To join the PuffTown V1 and start earning points for initial tokens, you need to have NFTs first.

To enter the PuffTown V1 game, you need at least 1 Puff Genesis or 1 Puff Football NFT.

For Puff Genesis, you can purchase them on the secondary market.
https://opensea.io/collection/puff-genesis-bsc

For Puff Football NFT, you can also purchase the Puff Team NFT on Binance NFT
https://www.binance.com/en/nft/mystery-box/collection/puff-football-mystery-box-288943351376988160?isBack=1

and redeem it on https://puffverse.pro

Or get the redeemed Puff Football NFT on the secondary market.
https://opensea.io/collection/puff-football-nft
Remember that after you get the Puff Team NFT, you need to redeem it to Puff Football NFT in order to participate in all the events and join the game.

The steps are as follows:

1. Get your Puff Team NFT on Binance NFT.
https://www.binance.com/en/nft/mystery-box/collection/puff-football-mystery-box-288943351376988160?isBack=1
2. Withdraw the Team NFT to your address.
3. Redeem your Team NFT to Puff Football NFT with the team’s costume in https://puffverse.pro/footballmint. Eg. If you have Puff Football Qatar, you can redeem one of the Qatari-designed NFTs in the collection.

You can then check your Puff in My Puff.

9. Awesome. Prepare your NFT now if you would like to join Puffverse especially in Pufftown v1 and Puffgo beta version. Is there anything else you would like to speak to our audience today?
A:
The official PuffTown includes V1 simulation game with real tokens output, asset control (NFT & Token in PuffGo, PuffLand, PuffWorld, and on-chain), wallet & account system (Web 2 users can also join), Swap, Marketplace, hardware related, etc.

That’s about all for today, do read our docs for the details and prepare for the PuffTown V1 during the holidays. https://docs.puffverse.pro/product/pufftown-v1

Everyone please do remember, the Version 1 is a web game, which means you can play it on both PC & mobiles. The official PuffTown will be an App available on both Android and IOS phones, just like what we have for Puffgo.

➡️Part 2: Question From Twitter (5 best questions).
1. I saw that there are 5 characters on your website, Patty, Cloude, Ashe, Bill Duck and Pop. What are their characteristics? How do they influence the game? What is their work? @G52923901Gobir
A:
Patty: A dinosaur hatched by a mysterious egg covered in green fuzz, with sharp claws and a chubby body. He saved the Princess when she was hunted and under siege by the Moru Evil Group. Somehow, he recognizes himself as her guardian angel, and always protects the Princess from any crisis because Princess is the first person he met after the incubation. However, he is actually the doppelganger of the Demon King who is in the crisis, created to keep her safe. Patty is vigorous, innocent, and pure. Patty is the core member of the Protagonist group and the valiant-like existence.

Claud: Muscular Claude, the son of the White Cloud, grew up in the white cloud group. He has been longing for his origin for years and decided to leave the house and travel for his father. For some reason, he ran into the Castle and learned that Mr. B, who claimed to be the King is his biological father. Then he made up his mind on staying in the castle and inheriting the throne at first until he met a pinky star named Ashe, whose prophecies led Claude to question Mr.B for the first time, and finally learned about the harm Mr.B has brought to the kingdom. They are like the wake-up calls for his justice, and rousing his desire of helping the Demons out and reconstructing the kingdom that was once ruined. He is straightforward and righteous but thoughtless, represents the core of contradiction in the protagonist group, yet stands out to face up crisis bravely and timely all the time!

Like I showed, each character has total different abilities and characteristics, which will affect game outcome as well since their capabilities are different.

Pufftown website: https://town.puffverse.pro/

Q3: @ALONMASK_AM
I saw XIAOMI on the website, are you partnered with them? What's the partnership between Puffverse and Xiaomi?
A:
Starting from 2019, due to the limits imposed by the epidemic, the majority of people worldwide are unable to travel as freely as before, but the socialization need still remains. With 300 million users worldwide, Xiaomi is a user-centered platform where quality content and platform will complement one another to create positive feedback in a loop. As a result, a team from Xiaomi decided to expand the investment in content production while choosing this track in the medium casual competitive category given the overall situation at the time (COVID-19). Hopefully, this will increase the viscosity of the platform and product users.

Q4: @david_is_back
I read that Unity provided all the technical support for the Puff project, but could you really describe the benefits that Unity provided them? Will it be a much simpler and faster interface?
A:
The team also collaborated with Unity to develop the underlying framework of the product and designed a full set of Unity technology to realize the product planning. Unity provided all the technical support for the Puff project, and the best TA team in the world was brought in to realize the Puff product’s art and animation. The team created the base framework of the editor based on Unity to give the best action game experience to the users after it was introduced to the public.
