AMA Recap: CRYPTO MINERS X WONDERMAN NATION

Wonderman Nation combines the ecosystem of Axie Infinity, the battle mechanics of Final Fantasy, and the breeding of Crypto Kitties for a Play to Earn game like you’ve never seen before. Players earn tokens through skilled gameplay and participation in the Wonderman ecosystem, where they battle, breed, explore and discover, to advance their supremacy in Wonderman Nation. Players can earn by:
- Competing in PvP battles to earn tokens
- Breeding creatures and selling them on the marketplace
- Discovering the essential food which is needed to breed creatures during battles and selling it on the marketplace
- Discovering spaceship parts during battles and selling them on the marketplace
- Launching explorations to new planets and moons and discovery new breeds which can be cross bred with Arcadian creatures
- Collecting and speculating on rare breeds
- Winning tournaments and prizes

We hosted an AMA session with WonderMan on 26th April.

Mr. Ramsy was the host from Crypto Miners and Mr. Garth, CEO of WonderMan was the guest. He shared delightful knowledge and unique features of WonderMan.

Segment 1️⃣: Introduction

Ramsy:
Hello everyone 👋 and welcome to the Crypto Miners AMA session With WondermanNation

To help us learn more about the featured project of this AMA session, we are lucky to be joined By Mr Garth

Lee:
Thanks for having us

Ramsy:
Hello there 👋

Welcome here mate

Garth Midgley:
Hello there!

Thanks for having Wonderman onboard 😁🙏

Ramsy:
Thanks guys for bringing Us WonderMan❤️

I’m pretty sure that our Community is very much excited to learn more about WonderMan ✌️

So let’s get started if you guys are ready!!

Garth Midgley:
Awesome. We’re excited to share 🚀

Ramsy:
So let’s do that 🥂

First of all Please give us a brief explanation about ‘Wonderman’ .What popped up in your mind to create such a platform in this Space?

Garth Midgley:
About Wonderman …
Wonderman Nation is a collection of P2E metaverse games with token and NFT cross play. The first two titles released will be the PvP battler ‘Wonderman Nation’ (the lead title), and the arcade creature discovery arcade title called ‘Wonderman Attacks’

The main game has a PvP battle system, with similar battle mechanics to the battle mode in Final Fantasy, but with lots of extra features like environmental interactions, creature team interactions, and unique items that can be used during battles, which change depending on which team you’re playing for. Players will be able to battle casually in one off battles, and in prized tournaments

The arcade metaverse game brings cross-play to the tokens and NFTs, providing more use cases, and giving players the opportunities to discover new creature NFTs, enabling players to breed new creatures with new abilities, along with locking in on-going revenues through a genomic breeding royalty system

We have full genomic breeding on chain, and we use smart NFTs in a way that allows for interesting abilities to be inherited and mutated allows for a really deep game strategy experience

What popped into our mind to create such a platform/game?

On the creative/story side — Wonderman is an IP that we’ve been developing over a number of years. It’s an IP that allows our team to have fun and be funny. Our mantra is “If it’s making you laugh when you’re making it, then you’re doing it right!”

From the game/ecosystem/technology side — We’ve been developing with play to earn game mechanics and ecosystems for many years. Wonderman is the perfect opportunity to create a hyper fun and diverse game experience, that also has a very tight and balanced tokenomics design, that will help the game to remain fun, balanced, and successful for years to come.

Ramsy:
Thanks Garth For this great start about WondermanNation 👌

Now let’s see our second question from this segment

Q2) So what are your main features and advantages that discern you from other Projects?

Garth Midgley:
Our main features are …

1- Easy sign up. Just an e-mail and password required. The same as with regular game platform accounts

2) Browser based. So there are zero downloads or installs required, and it’s accessible on all devices across all platforms

3) No upfront cost or 3rd party sign ups. Our live marketplace allows new players to play without buying creatures, and existing players can easily loan their creatures out and share rewards

4) We have onboarding with cryptocurrency and fiat, using credit card and bank deposit, so players don’t have to mess around with crypto exchanges if they don’t want to

5) And we have great ongoing incentives, like how everyone that discovers a new creature in the metaverse will get a % of revenue for future sales for both that creature, and for future breeds

So, to summarise, we’re focusing on accessibility features, so that anyone can play … we’re building Wonderman Nation to be a fun game first and foremost … and we’re making sure that there is a great ecosystem for great rewards

Ramsy:
Impressive features 👍

Q3) How has the experience and background of your team been effective in the success of your project so far?

Garth Midgley:
Our team have over 220 years experience working on over 130 published titles with the worlds top publishers and IPs, and we have experience and history building and delivering blockchain games

And our team first got together in 2010 to start creating games for this ‘future game ecosystem’ where users are playing globally and using digital currencies and digital assets to transfer value frictionlessly

So I think that all of this has been very instrumental in our success to date!

Our experience and background has really helped us in finding the best partners to work with in this space, from leading investors, to marketing, advisors and exchanges etc … So now with everyone working together, we’ve have a fantastic team that are all working really well together on all fronts

And it takes a great all round team to make it work!

Ramsy:
4) Now Share us about your Native token, What are the some of utlities of $WNDR Token in Your Ecosystem? And if possible share to us the Tokenomics

Garth Midgley:
Wonderman Nation has a dual token ecosystem

$WNDR (the governance token)
$NKTR (the utility token)

Use cases for WNDR:
- Buying creatures
- Buying food NFTs
- Using as fuel for your NFT spaceship to enter the Metaverse play
- Entering tournaments
- Renting creatures from the marketplace
- Staking for NKTR rewards
- DAO voting on NKTR inflation
- DAO voting on future game features and ecosystem partners

Use cases for NKTR:
- Breeding creatures
- Buying spaceship parts
- Entering tournaments
- Renting creatures from the marketplace

So we’ve developed heaps of use cases for the tokens and NFTs, and we’ve created the metaverse cross-play both becuase it’s fun, and because it helps to balance both the use cases and supply in the dual token economy

By giving players lots of great and meaningful motivations to spend their tokens and use their NFTs (some NFTs will be eternal, and others can be used and removed from the supply), we create an ecosystem that can be balanced, reliable and fair

Ramsy:
Let’s move to our last question from this segment

Q5) So how long did it take to develop this project? What plans do you have for the future? And what can we expect from WonderMan If possible could you please share road map with us.

Garth Midgley:
We’ve been developing the IP for Wonderman Nation since 2013 — We have a lot of background development already done 👍

On our roadmap …
We’re currently running our public IDO on launchpads

https://polkastarter.com/projects/wonderman-nation
https://essential.bloklaunchpad.com/pool/wonderman-nation

We have our TGE and exchange listings coming up within the week

After the exchange listings, we’ll have our IGO with an initial batch of creature and food NFTs, along with staking

And for our development roadmap:
We have our alpha build in Q2 this year, our beta build (with community access) in Q3 this year, and the release candidate build scheduled for Q4 this year

Ramsy:
Thanks Garth for this well detailed introduction about WondermanNation:)

And that’s the wrap up of our the first part of the AMA session ✅

Garth Midgley:
Welcome 👍

Ramsy:
Let’s now proceed to our Twitter Questions section

i hope you’re ready for that!!

Garth Midgley:
lol
As ready as I’ll ever be 😁

Segment 2️⃣: Twitter Questions

Ramsy:
1) Many games do not support mobile devices, which makes them less appealing to many gamers throughout the world. Is it possible to play #Wonderman on both my phone and my computer? Is there an Android and iOS version, and what does my PC require to play it?

Garth Midgley:
Great point!

Wonderman Nation launches as a website — So it’s accessible on all devices across all platforms

There are zero downloads or installs required — It’s one-click-play

Pavillion Hub has easy sign up. Just an e-mail and password required. The same as with regular game platform accounts — And this is also all accessible via a website.

So you don’t need a PC to play, and it’s accessible to all ❤️

Ramsy:
2) What can the project woderman can achieve if the necessary resources are put I place. Of what benefits can an average online person gain if everyone is to be carried along. Then how this project be improved on the long run

Garth Midgley:
We have a super experienced game team that have:
1) Already worked together for over a decade
2) Worked on award winning and critically acclaimed games

So you can be sure that we’re going to put in the long haul to keep on developing and improving Wonderman Nation to make it the best game possible, and to keep on expanding the metaverse play

Ramsy:
3) Instead of selling items or game copies, how can your game developer focus on growing the player-to-player economy and charge little to monetize? How can we think of #WondermanNation as a country with a REAL economy for players and investors?

Garth Midgley:
We’ve built the whole game around PvP play and player interactions.

Our multiverse crossplay approach helps with this, as there are increased incentives for players across all of the different games to trade with each other

Just a couple of examples are:

- Players in the battle strategy game will discover ship part NFTs
- They can trade these with people that want to construct their ship for the arcade game
- Players in the arcade game can discover new creature NFTs
- They can then trade that back to the players in the battle game

This is truly gaming and gaming economy decentralized!

Ramsy:
4) What are the minimum requirements to play #WondermanNation game? Are there any #NFT requirements or entry fees?

Garth Midgley:
Wonderman Nation is free to play!

New players are able to borrow creatures out of the live marketplace (creatures are staked there by other players), and then the rewards from battles are shared between both the players and the creature owners 💎

Ramsy:
5) Don’t you have any video footage to show people how you played? What about the 3D/HD graphics? Can you tell me more about WonderMan’s primary features? Also, what P2E models do you provide and what sets you apart from the competition?

Here is our last question from twitter

Garth Midgley:
This is like 10 questions in one 😂

Don’t you have any video footage to show people how you played?

Keep an eye out after the IDO, and around our creature NFT release for gameplay sneak peeks 😎

Can you tell me more about WonderMan’s primary features?

Our primary features are:

1) Insanely accessible! — Available on all platforms and devices (runs in browser), easy sign up (e-mail and password only), no installs, no upfront costs

2) Metaverse cross-play to provide a sustainable cyclical economy — Complementary use cases across the games in the metaverse; Wonderman Nation, Wonderman Attacks, and Wonderman Social

3) Reward pools dynamically adjusted for sustainable utility token release in line with community growth

Also, what P2E models do you provide and what sets you apart from the competition?

And I also just answered this part in the answer above ☝️😁

Ramsy:
Thanks dude for Your Valuable Answers❣️
And that’s the end of our twitter question segment

Now Moving on to our last segment — Live Q&A

Garth Midgley:
Perfect, you’re welcome. And thank you for the questions everyone 👍

Ramsy:
So shall we?

Garth Midgley:
Yep … let’s do it!

Ramsy:
Lets go,

Segment 3️⃣: Live QnA
(In this segment group was opened for 60 seconds and Miners sent hundreds of questions. Guest choose some best to answer)

1) Sourav Singh:
I Got to Know that $WNDR IDO is already Planned on the POLKASTARTER Platform, May I know Why You have Chosen the POLKASTARTER and May I know the Complete Details about the Participation in this IDO ?

Garth Midgley:
Polkastarter is one of, and perhaps ‘the’, leading IDO for new projects and GameFi games.

They have a large and very active community, and they are very experienced in this space, so they offer fantastic support for projects through the IDO period.

Every upcoming project wants to get onto Polkastarter for these reasons. But it’s not easy, and were very happy to be partnering with them on our IDO launch.

If you’re already a part of their IDO whitelist, then you can take part here

2) Amina Iqbal:
I read that WonderNation is changing the way it manages the token supply, with a pool-based reward system. Can you explain in more detail. Does it depend on how many players are in the ecosystem? Is this a daily reward system?

Garth Midgley:
That’s correct. We’ve developed an advanced next generation P2E pool system to control the supply going out, so that the market isn’t flooded — This system matches the supply and the demand.

The exact pool mathematics is more complicated than this, but it’s essentially a balance of:

- An annual pool, that’s then broken down into smaller and smaller parts to control the output, and speed of delivery of rewards

- Plus augmentation from incoming tokens being spent on breeding an NFTs

- Plus some other factors, including modification based on circulating supply to ensure that there is always a stable flow of liquidity for everyone

3) Shihad K:
Do you consider community feedback/requests during product creation to expand on new ideas for your project? Many projects fail because they do not understand the target audience and customers. So I want to know who is the ideal consumer for your product?

Garth Midgley:
Absolutely we do!

Community and player feedback is essential to building a great game!
And it is exactly one of the reasons why we’re speaking to community members like yourselves, to get community in early 👍

If you want to get involved and have your say, you can jump in on.

4) taehyungshii:
Wonderman has been built on Phantasma Chain, to which I’m surprised since this chain is not much known compared to other in the crypto industry. So why Phantasma Chain? What benefits have you seen on this chain that made you build project here? How suitable is this for Wonderman?

Garth Midgley:
We had designs to build P2E games already from 2010 — We built our studio with exactly this kind of future digital economy gaming in mind.

We had a design for what this economy would need, and when we were reviewing Ethereum and other similar chains around that time, the writing was already on the wall — These chains simply couldn’t sustain the speed and low fees that gamers and developers would needSo we kept on searching, and finally came across Phantasma Chain

Phantasma Chain is the first purpose built — And still the best — layer 1 blockchain solution for gaming.

- Transactions are FAST. This is super important for a successful P2E game, as you want to use blockchain features during gameplay, but you don’t want the blockchain to slow the game down

- Transactions are cheap. And so we can cover the costs to make transactions free, and streamline the experience

- The SmartNFTs are advanced. We have LOTS of creative options for how we can use NFTs, whether it’s as multi-layer (nested) NFTs, or using the RAM and ROM features to bake some details into the NFT (i.e. the original discoverer of a creature for on-going rewards), and have other details fungible, so that the NFT can change over time

So the advanced layer 1 solution for GameFi that Phantasma Chain had built was really the best and only choice

5) Sam:
Do you Have an option to stake #Wonderman Nation NFT and Earn a passive income For the holder?

Garth Midgley:
Absolutely yes.

- You can stake $WNDR to earn the $NKTR token
- But even cooler is that you can stake your creature NFTs for other players to use. This allows new players to play without having to buy creatures + it gives the creature owner an ongoing passive income.

And as an extra awesome …
For anyone that discovers new creatures in the arcade metaverse game, you will earn ongoing rewards from that creature when it’s used in battles and when it’s bred and sold in the marketplace … Ongoing / Forever 🚀💎❤️
