One of the core things I’m trying to prove with /sands-of-sumaii is a fun game that you can play daily and earn $0.50 a day Maybe one day you get a rare item worth $10! But overall you have fun playing and then the economy is a part you benefit from Also, the economy will never run out of rewards to distribute because it’s a % of revenue. So it’s not just giving away money from locked up tokens - it must earn the money and then shares that via loot and the weekly leaderboard It’s an experiment I have yet to see done and I hope it creates a concept I can use to fund a 3D version of the game - who knows

Been getting a lot of DCs about /sands-of-sumaii asking why people can't play 1) this means a lot that you enjoyed it so much and want to keep playing 2) the last version of the game was alpha, so yes your data will be wiped for the next test-session. 3) I have saved the leaderboard rankings to reward those who helped test 4) the next big things I'm adding are onchain elements: NFT items, onchain marketplace, [redacted] There will be another test season when I'm done building onchain elements, but I'll make it invite-only because there will be onchain elements and I don't want anyone to spend too much money on the test phase. DC me if you want to join the next test.

Should there be seasons and battle passes? Some related thoughts: - how do we feel about new seasons having new items, which would reduce value of previous items? This is common in MMOs, but this time it’s things bought with a token https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/8-EIKyuESN0j/sumaii

Trying to design my game where you can play as much as you want, but at the same time progression can't be completed by spamming the game For example, under the current structure, players have nearly hit the level cap of 60 within just a week or so. The goal would be to stretch this out to a couple months. Some ideas: - XP cap on leveling per week. Players who started late would be allowed to level up to the point that older players are at. - Non-XP content to supplement when you've hit your weekly max XP. Dungeons, raids, PvP. These would reward items and tokens, but just not XP.

marketplace listings now only last 24 hours if you can't sell an item, you can always salvage it and create health potions :)

Players now have 5 combat spells (up from 3) Lots of tuning and bugs still, but goal is to bump up complexity a bit and add some strategic decisions instead of spamming 2 buttons. https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/8-EIKyuESN0j/sumaii

large item design went out for /sands-of-sumaii overall items are nerfed, but there's much more interesting choices in terms of names and stat combinations ty @agrimony.eth for ideas and concepts <3 https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/8-EIKyuESN0j/sumaii
